This is probably terribly simple...

I was wondering if there was a way to read an entire file into an array, like the perl construction:

Code: Select all

open(FILE, "filename");
  @data = <FILE>;
  close(FILE);
Is there a good wqay to do this in PHP, or would I have to parse through the entire file line by line?

Thanks for your help!

I was reading the manual, I must have just missed that page. Thank you for your help.

it's somewhat understandable.. the function name isn't exactly informative, nor suggestive of it's nature.. plus it's real short :lol:

no big deal, either way.
