Question

I have a txt file that created in notepad , containing these lines for example :

lao_esan_ubon_444
chantrick
solikh
knalpoot
tanduy_007
Mario3010

Now i need to put every line in an array cell , like these:

array('lao_esan_ubon_444','chantrick','solikh','knalpoot','tanduy_007','Mario3010');

How can i do this with PHP (for long lists)?

Answer 1

Use the file function.

$array = file('somefile.txt', FILE_IGNORE_NEW_LINES | FILE_SKIP_EMPTY_LINES);

Note that the flags parameter (FILE_IGNORE_NEW_LINES | FILE_SKIP_EMPTY_LINES) is only available in PHP 5 or greater.
