ok here is an example that someone gave me...it
works..it splits up the file but it comes out as
$data_values[0] = Something
$data_values[1] = SomethingElse
$data_values[0] = SomethingMore
$data_values[0] = Something
$data_values[1] = SomethingElse
$data_values[0] = SomethingMore
and so on
how do I get this to where its $Something,
$SomethingElse, $SomethingMore
thanks...
?PHP
$fp = fopen(test.txt,r);
$file = fread($fp,filesize(test.txt));
fclose($fp);
$records = explode(\n\n\n\n\n,$file);
foreach($records as $record_num = $data) {
$data_values = explode( - ,$data);
foreach($data_values as $data_num = $record) {
echo \$data_values[$data_num] = $recordbrp;
}
}
?

Subject: [PHP] importing text file
I have a text file that is formatted as such
Something - SomethingElse
4 blank lines
SomethingMore
4 blank lines
Something - SomethingElse
4 blank lines
SomethingMore
4 blank lines
and so on
Anyone have any ideas on what I would use to get
this
into seperate
records that are $Something, $SomethingElse,
$SomethingMore for displaying
in php or even importing into mysql?
I would even go for $Something and just
$SomethingMore
with $Something
really being $Something-$SomethingElse. I don't know
if that makes sense.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
