After reading the file into a variable ($file_contents =
file_get_contents($file_name)) and then use the explode() function to
split it up:
$exploded = explode("|",$file_contents);
The contents will now be in an array, split up by the pipe.
Hope this at least gets you started...

Subject: [php-list] Doing a Split the way I used to do it in perl -
overwhelmed with options
Hi gang
I'm trying to export data from a pipe delimited file (|) with php,
trying to get away from perl entirely.
My old perl script opens the file and sticks it in an array, then
handles each line as a record in the database table by splitting the
line like this:
($MLSNo, $Status, $DOM, $Address, $Unit, $City, $Area, $LP, $SP, $BT,
$SqFt, $Bed, $Bth, $PB, $Gar, $Garno, $YrBlt, $TBMap, $Acres,
$LotSqFt, $HOA, $Freq) = split (/\|/,$i);
How can I achieve the same with php??????
