[SOLVED] file input line by line

Recommended Posts

So, i'm wondering how to go about reading info from a file and storing it into an array line by line.

 

I'm making a game and want to be able to change the options of it by reading it into a file

 

so the file would look like this...

 

'option1

option2

option3

option4... etc'

 

and i need to place them into a drop down menu. 

 

Here is what i have tried... but i keep gettin really reeeeaaally funk results...

 

$content = file('myfile.txt');
$numLines = count($content);
for ($i = 0; $i < $numLines; $i++) {
   $line = trim($content[$i]);
   echo $line[$i];
}

 

but when i input the file that contains the text:

'option1

option2

option3

option4

etc'

 

I only get out 'opti' for the echo...

 

i'm probably not understanding how the file is stored in the array correctly... i duno
