 You should make sure you don't accidentally delete some 
 double quotes inside
 the strings - maybe
 explode(,,substr($line,1,strlen($line)-2));
 would be a better option.

explode(,, substr($line, 1, -2));

would be even better!

Cheers!

Also, make sure you get rid of the space at the beginning of $data[1] - the
space after the comma gets in there, so either use trim() or just trim the
first character programatically ($data[1]=substr($data[1],1)).

 What I have is a text file that has data in the following format:

 The quotation markes can't be helped...the script I use to generate
 the file adds them automatically.  (Hummingbird Basic, one of the
 worst languages in the history of mankind.)

 What I've been trying to do is create an array from the file
 with the following format: array (username=numbers)

 I have gotten this far:

 while (!feof ($fp)) {
 $line = fgets($fp, 4096);
   $data = explode(,, str_replace(\, , $line));  //using
 str_replace to get rid of quote marks
//following line to see if data is correct
 echo $data[0]. .$data[1].br;
 }
 fclose($fp);

 The data is right, however I can't seem to build an array dynamically.
 Also, please let me know if I can do this more efficiently.

 Thanks.

 NOTE:  Using php 4.0.6, so the function trim($line, \) did not work
