[PHP] Simple code that won't work
Hi All,
Reasonably new to PHP and trying to write a code that looks through my
logfiles and reports the lines that contain any of the keywords in my init
file.
However can't seem to get it to work
?
// Open an ini file
if (!($IniContent = file(d:\MyPhp\initORA.ini)))
{
Print (File could not be opened);
exit;
}
if (!($FileContent = file(d:\MyPhp\\test.ora)))
{
Print (File could not be opened);
exit;
}
while (list ($LineNum, $Line) = each ($FileContent))
{
while (list($KeyNum, $IniParm) = each($IniContent))
{
if (strstr($Line,$IniParm))
{
print ($Line);
}
}
}
?
If the part that does not seem to work is the bit that does the comparison.
Anybody have an idea why???
TIA Jack

'=' is an assignment operator, what you want is '==' which is the equality
operator.

Nope, nope, and nope. Those are quite legitimate assignments of the results of the
file() calls within the if -- nothing wrong with that.
However, I'd certainly double the backslashes in the pathnames, just in case you
happen to hit a \x combination that means something -- either that or use single
quotes so only \' has special meaning!

{

{

}
}
}
?
The following note on the manual page for file() may be of interest here:
Note: Each line in the resulting array will include the
line ending, so you still need to use trim() if you do
not want the line ending present.
(I'm not convinced this is the most elegant way to do what you want, but with the
addition of trim() it should do the job!)
Cheers!
