Import file and read the contents

[phpmady]

Hi,

 

I assigned a project where i have to import the mobile numbers from the file, but i have no idea how to proceed this.  What kind of file to accept as input and how to read.

 

 

Thanks

You can just import the file and then parse it.  I suggest using XML because it's human and machine readable.  So if you have an XML file with the numbers you can do the following:

 

$filename = "/some/file/location/file.xml";
$contents = file_get_contents($filename);
$results = SimpleXML($contents);
// take a look at your data
print_r($results);

Thank you, that means restricting other file types

 

Thanks
