Check out explode()
$file // say this variable has your file contents
$lines = explode ("\n", $file); // lines contains each line of the file
foreach ($lines as $line -> $content) {
if (strrpos($line, ':')) {
$values = explode (':', $content);
echo "The first value is : ".$values[0];
}
else {
echo "This line doesn't contain a : moving to next line";
}
}
NOTE: if "\n" doesn't work try "\r\n" , I think. Also this is mostly from
the top of my head so there might be some syntax problems.
