[SOLVED] dump webpage source to an array, access each line individually

[ngng]

I'm trying to pull a webpage that gets updated, dump it into an array to read each line indvidually, then ideally split line X by the tabs (\t).

 

$raw = file_get_contents('http://www.nwac.us/products/OSOCMT');

Instead of file_get_contents(), use file()... It puts each line into an array position automatically.

file() dumps it into an array automatically, if you want it in array form, use that instead of file_get_contents().

 

If you want to split the lines by tabs you could always do something like...

 

<?php
$lines = file($myFile);
for($i = 0; $i < count($lines); ++$i)
{
$lines[$i] = explode("\t", $lines[$i]);
}
?>

 

.. to make it into a multidimensional array. If you don't want it in that form you could just use explode on the individual lines you want.

doh! would you do it like this?

 

$raw = file('http://www.nwac.us/products/OSOCMT');
$data = split("\t", $raw[37]);
echo print_r($data);
