I have a text file with lots of text, and I want to display a part of it on the screen with PHP.
At a certain point there's string like ITEM DESCRIPTION:
What I want to get all content from this string (just after it) to the end of the file.
This is my code so far:
$file = "file.txt";
$f = fopen($file, "r");
while ($line = fgets($f, 1000))
echo $line;
:)
How about you use strstr() and file_get_contents() ?
$contents = strstr(file_get_contents('file.txt'), 'ITEM DESCRIPTION:');
# or if you don't want that string itself included:
$s = "ITEM DESCRIPTION:"; # think of newlines as well "\n", "\r\n", .. or just use trim()
$contents = substr(strstr(file_get_contents('file.txt'), $s), strlen($s));
$file = "file.txt";
$f = fopen($file, 'rb');
$found = false;
while ($line = fgets($f, 1000)) {
if ($found) {
echo $line;
continue;
}
if (strpos($line, "ITEM DESCRIPTION:") !== FALSE) {
$found = true;
}
}
What about
$file = "file.txt";
$f = fopen($file, "r");
$start = false;
while ($line = fgets($f, 1000)) {
if ($start) echo $line;
if ($line == 'ITEM DESCRIPTION') $start = true;
}
?
