I am trying to open, read, copy and then append the contents of multiple text or csv files to the bottom of another text file. I know this is straight forward and have figured out how to add multiple text lines to a file but am not sure how to add entire files.

My current code is below and I would greatly appreciate any help.

Code: Select all

<?php
 
$myFile = "textfile.txt";
$fh = fopen($myFile, 'a') or die("can't open file");
$stringData = "567\n";
fwrite($fh, $stringData);
$stringData = "1293\n";
fwrite($fh, $stringData);
fclose($fh);
 
?>

Hi,

The text files are sequential files and to add entire file to the csv file you will have read through all the lines and write them one by one.

Hope this helps!

Cheers,
