I have been working on a project to scan a file for a descriptive start
word, end word, and then copies the middle text. 
So far, this code is working but....

It scans a directory to see how many files are there. 
Then it scans a file for how many quotes there are. 
Right now it just posts them to a screen. 
Later it will write them to a file. 

My test directory has four files. Each has a number of quotes in each
file.
The code will scan the first two files but then returns 0 quotes in the
last two files.
I created each file myself. 644 is the ownership of each file.
I dont see anything wrong with the files so I changed out the four
files 
for four more. Didnt help. 

Suggestions?

                $quote = substr($source, $middle_pos, $ending_pos - 
$middle_pos);
