Re: [PHP] file reading and array's
Perfect! Thank you, my mind was out in left field somewhere.

I need to check the next line in the file for a condition to exist. I have tried this, but run into the pointer resetting on each pass. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Use explicitly array pointers instead of the 'built-in' ones, then: your need to look-ahead becomes array[$ptr + 1] avoiding the first record becomes for ( $i=1; $i$last; $i ++ ) //instead of $i=0 Does that cover things? =dn -- -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
