even further, instead of using fgets() to get each line and then exploding
it, you can use fgetcsv() which reads the line and breaks it into chunks by
any delimiter, returning the chunks in an array.
$fp = fopen($filename, "r");
while (!feof($fp))
{
$line = fgetcsv($fp, 99999, "|");
...
}
fclose($fp);
