[SOLVED] fopen and read file from 3rd line

[mycow]

Hello

I have the following code and i am trying to find a way to read the file from the 3rd line and not from the first. Is this possible?

 

$handle = fopen("file.csv", 'r');
while(($data = fgetcsv($handle, 100000, ";")) !== false)
{
list($col1, $col2, $col3, $col4) = $data;
}
fclose($handle);

 

Thank you for any help

use file, it returns an array for each line.

www.php.net/file

I forgot to tell you.. the csv is kind of big 

 

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 299 bytes) in C:\xampp\htdocs\crm\test\test.php on line 21

ini_set('memory_limit', '52M');

unset your array after.

$handle = fopen("file.csv", 'r');
for($i=0; $i<2; $i++) $data = fgetcsv($handle, 100000, ";"); // read two rows
while(($data = fgetcsv($handle, 100000, ";")) !== false)
{
list($col1, $col2, $col3, $col4) = $data;
}
fclose($handle);

omfgthezerg thanks the code worked. Is there a way to force the reading of the file with a specific encoding?

 

Sasa thank you too for the code.
