You might want to use preg_match_all(). Here's a sample of getting whole row
with a specified word in it:
<pre>
<?
$file =
"This line should be found!
This line is not important! If you see this, there is something wrong!!!
This line should be found too!
This is too much!
Should this too?
Yes, it should!";
preg_match_all("/.*should.*/i", $file, $aMatches, PREG_PATTERN_ORDER);
var_dump($aMatches);
?>
</pre>

Subject: RE: [PHP] Search for keyword in txt file
Ok, it`s not that easy......here`s my code...I wanna search all the files in
the "logs" directory and for each file found I want it to search for the
word "started" and print that line into a table row.....
I will probably need to do like a "for each" loop....but where do I insert
it ?
============================================================================
===
<?php
if ($handle = opendir('logs'))
{
echo "Directory handle: $handle".'<br>';
echo '<table border="1">' ;
echo '<tr>';
echo '<td><center><b><font size="3" color="navy">Log Files on
'.$HTTP_SERVER_VARS['HTTP_HOST'] .'</td></center></b></font>';
echo '<td><center><b><font size="3"
color="navy">Created</td></center></b></font>';
echo '</tr>';
{
// Loop over the directory -------------------------
while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle)))
//Take out upper directory pointers first-----------
if ($file != "." and $file != "..")
//Start filename insertion--------------------------
{
echo '<tr><td><font size="2"><a href="/logs/'.$file.'">' . $file .
'</td></font></a>'.
'<td>' . '</td>';
}
}
echo '</tr>';
echo '</table>';
closedir($handle);
}
?>
============================================================================

Thanks
