Re: [PHP] Using File to count number of lines
you sure each is on its own line (\n) ? if you're only getting a value of 1 it is likely putting everything on a single array key..

Re: [PHP] Using File to count number of lines
When I open the list in notepad everything is on one line with a square box character. When I open it in wordpad, it's one email address on each line.

When I open the list in notepad everything is on one line with a
square box character.
When I open it in wordpad, it's one email address on each line.
[/snip]
Sounds like that there are not any newline characters in the file. You
could do something like this...
$theFile = fopen(http://www.mysite.co.uk/mailing_list_database.list;,
r);
while(!feof($theFile)){
$theLine = fgets($theFile, 4096);
$theCount++;
}
fclose($theFile);
echo $theCount;

Re: [PHP] Using File to count number of lines
do this: $file = 'http://www.mysite.co.uk/mailing_list_database.list'; echo 'pre'; print_r($file); echo '/pre'; im pretty sure you'll only see 1 key.. if each has its own line, you would see something like: Array ( [0] = foo [1] = foo [2] = foo [3] = foo ) etc...

RE: [PHP] Using @file
Good day, While I am sure most of the readers of the list are finding this conversation amusing, I will still try to explain this a bit better to you. DNS, or Domain Name Service, is the protocol which translates names into IP addresses. If you supply a computer with a name, it must use DNS (or NetBIOS, or a hosts file, etc.) in order to determine what an IP address is from a name. If you have not correctly configured your machine to use DNS, then your computer will not be able to find the server you are asking it to. The error message you have supplied indicates that this is the problem. From a command prompt on the server you are trying to run this on, try to ping the server you are trying to reach by name (e.g. ping www.myserver.com . If you can not reach the server, then this is the reason. If this is the case, please contact the administrator of your machine/network to correct this problem and take this discussion off the PHP list.
