reading from a specific byte

[alin19]

i have a file and i want to read from it from  byte 1024 for example,

and from each line i want only to read 8 bytes, i have this code, can you help me?

 

 

$handle = fopen("C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\sibiu\FuturesDeal.txt", "r");
if ($handle) {
    while (!feof($handle)) {
        $buffer = fgets($handle,;
        echo $buffer;
	echo ftell($handle);


    }

    fclose($handle);
}

This would read every 8 bytes from 1024 bytes into the file.

 

<?php

$fp = fopen('file.txt', "r");
$offset = 1024;


while(!feof($fp)) {
	echo fgets($fp, $offset);
	$offset += 8;
}
fclose($fp);
?>
