Splitting a TXT file into multiple TXT files

[young_coder]

Dear All,

I would like to split a TXT file into multiple TXT files based on the number of lines (every line to be content for one new file, 100 lines = 100 files with one line, so every would be named like "1.txt", "2.txt", "3.txt" etc.).

Thank you very much

Read the whole file into an array. Loop through the array writing a new file for each line:

<?php
$old_file = file('old_file.txt');
$cnt = count($old_file);
for ($i=0;$i<$cnt;++$i) {
   $n = $i + 1;
   file_put_contents($n . '.txt',$old_file[$i];
}
?>
