what am i doing wrong

I cant tell you what is wrong without seeing your code.

[darkfreaks]

i edited it in

[gizmola]

Is vampirefreaks.com your site?

 

[darkfreaks]

no it is a site i am pulling the info off of

[wildteen88]

To output the contents of an array you need to use print_r eg

echo '<pre>'.print_r($file,true).'</pre>';

[darkfreaks]

tried that but then i get

 

Array=> 1-100

 

then the contents of the page.

 

however this all worked before i put in the following if statement

 

<?php
if($line=='This User Has Been Suspended') 
{ $by=$reason = next($file);//gets the next pointer in the array
  $reason = next($file);//gets the next pointer in the array
  break;
  $message="$userHas Been Suspended By VF Admin For:$by$reason$form";
}?>

 

is it possible it is not exiting the arrayed next loop?

[darkfreaks]

blah i took  the else statement out until i can get an answer why $file is coming out with array() instead of getting the page content. i will leave this open. for now. :-\

nevermind problem solved!
