while loops

[Scott]

[color=\"#000000\"]You\'re probably trying to confuse it a bit much. Try this: [code]<?php

$tnum = "Five";
$file = "Cups.txt";
$found = FALSE;
$desc = find_desc($tnum, $file);
echo $desc;

function find_desc($text, $file)
{
$lines = file($file);

foreach ($lines as $line_num => $line) {
$linenum = (int) $line_num;
$linenum++;
$t = strpos($line, $text);
if ($found === TRUE)
{
echo $line;
}
if($t !== false)
{
$found = TRUE;
}
}
}

?>[/code]

Not tested it, but it *should* work <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... unsure.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':unsure:\' /> [/color]

[color=\"green\"]err...that code returns the entire contents of the file <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... >/blum.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' /> lol thanks anyway?[/color]

[Scott]

Ah, yeah. After echo $line; put $found = FALSE; That should stop it returning anything else.

[Vercz]

[color=\"green\"]...now it returns nothing :| [/color]

[radar]

Why are cups kept in a file? :\

[Vercz]

[color=\"green\"]probably for the same reason that suits, swords and shields are...


that reason? nfi tbh <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... >/blum.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' />[/color]

[code]<?php

$tnum = "Five";
$file = "Cups.txt";
$desc = find_desc($tnum, $file);
echo $desc;

function find_desc($text, $file)
{
$found = FALSE;
$lines = file($file);

foreach ($lines as $line_num => $line) {
$linenum = (int) $line_num;
$linenum++;
$t = strpos($line, $text);
if ($found === TRUE)
{
echo $line;
return;
}
if($t !== false)
{
$found = TRUE;
}
}
}

?>[/code]

All workie. At least, thats what I think you\'re trying to do.

[Vercz]

[color=\"green\"]...it still doesnt show anything <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... #>/cry.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':(\' /> [/color]

[radar]

Can I have a copy of the file please?

[Vercz]

[color=\"green\"]Cups.txt? sure... [url=\"http://vercz.killanet.net/tst/Cups.txt\"]http://vercz.killanet.net/tst/Cups.txt[/url] =) [/color]

[Scott]

Ah...that makes sense. It is working, working too well. The script will print the line directly following the word \"Five\". Since your following line is a blank line...you see a blank line. Remove the empty lines and it\'ll work <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />
