Have you looked at the file() function? it does all this work for you.

Be careful with loops like this you might want to use the foreach
statement in this case

first of you dont want to compare the value with the htmlspecialchar()
function, only use that to translate html chars like < to < so the
browser is will display the html code instead of rendering it.
second, the fgets() you used above still has the carriage return on it
so you will need to chomp that off or add it to your compare string.
