add text to beginning of lines

[dreamwest]

I have a list of movies, but i need to add some info to the beginning of each line:

 

Notorious
Fox Searchlight Pictures
Dir., George Tillman Jr.; Cast, Jamal Woolard, Angela Bassett, Derek Luke, Antonique Smith, Anthony Mackie, Naturi Naughton, Sean Ringgold, Marc Jon Jefferies


Paul Blart: Mall Cop
Columbia
Dir., Steve Carr; Cast, Kevin James, Jayma Mays, Shirley Knight

 

What i need to do is split each block up into lines and add additional info to them

Movie:  Notorious
Studio: Fox Searchlight Pictures
Cast: Dir., George Tillman Jr.; Cast, Jamal Woolard, Angela Bassett, Derek Luke, Antonique Smith, Anthony Mackie, Naturi Naughton, Sean Ringgold, Marc Jon Jefferies


Movie: Paul Blart: Mall Cop
Studio: Columbia
Cast: Dir., Steve Carr; Cast, Kevin James, Jayma Mays, Shirley Knight

 

There are always to blank lines in between each paragraph

Here is one solution (admittedly not the "best" or most elegant). Depending on the Operating System PHP is running on (*nix or Windows)

<?php
$movies = array();
$parts = explode("\r\n", $str);
foreach($parts as $movie){
$info = explode("\n", $movie);
$movies[] = 'Movie: '.$info[0]."\n".'Studio: '.$info[1]."\n".'Cast: '.$info[2]."\n";
}
$str = implode("\r\n", $movies);
?>

I took it as if he's working with a file, rather than arrays.

<?php
  $file=<<<EOT
Notorious
Fox Searchlight Pictures
Dir., George Tillman Jr.; Cast, Jamal Woolard, Angela Bassett, Derek Luke, Antonique Smith, Anthony Mackie, Naturi Naughton, Sean Ringgold, Marc Jon Jefferies


Paul Blart: Mall Cop
Columbia
Dir., Steve Carr; Cast, Kevin James, Jayma Mays, Shirley Knight
EOT;

    file_put_contents('sample.lst',$file);
    $fr=fopen('sample.lst','rt');
    $fw=fopen('sample.2.lst','wt');
    while($line=fgets($fr))
    {
        if(strlen(trim($line)))
        {
            fputs($fw,"Movie: {$line}");
            fputs($fw,'Studio: '. fgets($fr));
            fputs($fw,'Cast: '. fgets($fr));
        } else {
            fputs($fw,$line);
        }
    }
    fclose($fr);
    fclose($fw);
    header('Content-Type: text/plain');
    readfile('sample.2.lst');
    unlink('sample.lst');
    unlink('sample.2.lst');
    
?>
