lines   array    while    line   fgets  file       false      array push  lines   line     Obviously  you ll need to create a file handle first and store it in  file

The fastest way that I ve found is       Open the file  fp    fopen  filename   r         Add each line to an array if   fp        array   explode   n   fread  fp  filesize  filename         where  filename is going to be the path  amp  name of your file  eg     filename txt   Depending how you ve set up your text file  you ll have might have to play around with the  n bit

It s just easy as that   lines   explode  quot  n quot   file get contents  foo txt      file get contents   - gets the whole file as string  explode  quot  n quot   - will split the string with the delimiter  quot  n quot  - what is ASCII-LF escape for a newline  But pay attention - check that the file has UNIX-Line endings  If  quot  n quot  will not work properly you have another coding of newline and you can try  quot  r n quot    quot  r quot  or  quot  025 quot

This has been covered here quite well  but if you REALLY need even better performance than anything listed here  you can use this approach that uses strtok    Names Keys        Name   strtok file get contents  file     n    while   Name     false         Names Keys  Name    0       Name   strtok   n        Note  this assumes your file is saved with  n as the newline character  you can update that as need be   and it also stores the words names lines as the array keys instead of the values  so that you can use it as a lookup table  allowing the use of isset  much  much faster   instead of in array

You were on the right track  but there were some problems with the code you posted  First of all  there was no closing bracket for the while loop  Secondly   line of text would be overwritten with every loop iteration  which is fixed by changing the   to a    in the loop  Third  you re exploding the literal characters   n  and not an actual newline  in PHP  single quotes will denote literal characters  but double quotes will actually interpret escaped characters and variables        lt  php          file   fopen  members txt    r             i   0          while   feof  file                  line of text    fgets  file                      members   explode   n    line of text           fclose  file           print r  members         gt
