[ resolved ] - Read file from a thingy.php

[ztealmax]

Hello again, its little me ;)

I want to have a little snippet that can read text files like this:

[b]READ.PHP?=textfilename.txt[/b]

How would i do something like that?


This is the read text file code i have today, however dont know how to make it so it opens selected text file
[code]<?php

// set file to read
$file = 'x101_news/filename.txt';
// open file
$fh = fopen($file, 'r') /*or die('Could not open file!')*/;
// read file contents
$data = fread($fh, filesize($file)) /*or die('Could not read file!')*/;
// close file
fclose($fh);
// print file contents
echo $data;
?>[/code]

[code]
<?php

// set file to read
$file = $_GET[''];
// open file
$fh = fopen($file, 'r') /*or die('Could not open file!')*/;
// read file contents
$data = fread($fh, filesize($file)) /*or die('Could not read file!')*/;
// close file
fclose($fh);
// print file contents
echo $data;
?>
[/code]

Thank you, i just tried it don't know if im doing something wrong, but dont seem to get it working:
[b]read.php?=textfilename.txt[/b]

Or should it open in some other way? :)

try
[code]
<?php

// set file to read
$file = $_GET[0];
// open file
$fh = fopen($file, 'r') /*or die('Could not open file!')*/;
// read file contents
$data = fread($fh, filesize($file)) /*or die('Could not read file!')*/;
// close file
fclose($fh);
// print file contents
echo $data;
?>
[/code]

how about read.php?text=textfilename.txt

[code]$file = $_GET['text'];
$text = nl2br(file_get_contents($file));
echo $text;[/code]
