[PHP-DEV] I need to search in my files

2002-11-22 Thread William Stark 
Hi everyone,
I need to search for a string in all the html files of a directory.
The problem is that i have to program this to be multi-plattform, so i cant
use linux commands.
I cant find any PHP native function to do this easily.
What can i do?
I thought about going like this...
/*read all files to an array*/

foreach($files as $file)
{
$fp=fopen($file,filesize);
$file_string=fread($fp,filesize);

/*search for the string in $file_string*/

if found {return xxx; exit;}
fclose($file);
}

but i dont like this... it sounds slow and not proffessional...
any ideas?

Thank u all.
William Stark

php.net/glob, but this list is not for support questions, you can better 
ask those on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailinglist.
