thanks a lot. I have my code run. <?php $file = fopen("/home/rock/test1.txt", "r"); $post=array(""); while (!feof($file) ) { $line = fgets($file); $array = explode(' ', $line); $count=count($array); for ($i = 0; $i < $count-1; $i++) { $sum=0; if($array[$i]=="use"){$name=substr($array[$i+1],0,-2);} if($array[$i]=="'help',"){$sum++;} if($sum>0){ if(!in_array($name,$post)) { array_push($post,$name);} } } } for ($i=0; $i<count($post);$i++) {echo $post[$i];echo "\n";} ?>

i can't edit the structure. <?php $file = fopen("/home/rock/test.txt", "r"); while (!feof($file) ) { $line = fgets($file); $array = explode(' ', $line); $count=count($array); for ($i = 0; $i < $count-1; $i++) { $sum=0; if($array[$i]=="Author"){$name=$array[$i+1];} if($array[$i]=="content"){$sum++;} if($sum>0){echo $name; echo " ";} } } ?> i had fixed this, this can be run, print, but had a problem that if the content have two "content" then it will print two author, who can help me to print only one for author?

anyone else help me?

Hi, anyone can help me?

<?php $file = fopen("/home/rock/test.txt", "r"); while (!feof($file) ) { $line = fgets($file); $array = explode(' ', $line); } $count = count($array); $j=0; $t=0; for ($i = 0; $i < $count; $i++) { $boo=true; while($boo){ $j++; if($array[$j]="Author"){ $t=$j+1; $name=$array[$t];} if($array[$j]="content"){ echo $name;} if($array[$i]="Chapter"){$boo=false;} } } ?> can you fixed this?

it's only seperate and enter beetween line.

the data file is only text. So what should i do?

I'm sorry, but i had try so many, i can't get it. I need an example to learn. $sum=0; if ($fh = fopen('/var/lib/mysql/mysql-slow....','r')) { while (! feof($fh)) { if(stristr($fread($fh),"Chapter")) { if (stristr($fread($fh),"Author")) { $name=$fread($fh); if(stristr($fread($fh),"content")) { $sum=$sum+1; } if ($sum>=1) {echo $name;} } } this is the recently file of mine.

Hi, I'm a beginner, i had a problem about get content from file, i had searched but i can't solve my problem: I have a text file (abc.txt). It have content like this: _*Chapter*_ : ... Author: aaa ( and then content .......vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv.......) _*Chapter*_ : ... Author: bbb ( and then content .........vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv.........) ..... and it loops like that. I have a string (abcxyz) that need to find in contents. If found it in content, print the name of the author (print all author have that content). the _*Chapter*_ is unique, in content hasn't got that word, but the word Author maybe. But beetween the Chapter and the Author, hasn't another word Author. Thanks a lot. PS: I need someone can help me to code this. (don't send me a link to example or something etc...)
