foreach() works on an array, $i is not an array. If you have error reporting
on you would have caught this. In any case if you're using an outer for-loop
as you're doing here then there is no need for a foreach().
OK, you can try this:
$file = file("data/ads.data");
for ($i = 1; $i <= 10; $i++) {
$line = array_pop($file);
// the following have been copied verbatim from your post
list($adnr, $user, $date, $listed, $hlong, $eins, $zwei, $drei, $vier,
$usern, $locst, $locstaa, $locc, $funf, $sech, $email, $Url, $ClassCat,
$ClassCat2, $Headstart, $Headend, $Descrip, $End1, $Endzwei, $End3, $Endvier,
$Endfunf, $Endsech, $Endsieben, $Endacht, $Endne, $dreizwei, $dreidrei,
$dreivier, $dreifunf, $dreisechs ) = split ("\|", $line);
print " $i <a
href=\"classifieds.cgi?session_key=&search_and_display_db_button=on&db_id=$adnr&query=retrieval\"
target=\"_blanko\">$Endzwei $End3</a> <br>";
}
