Trying single quotes should have gotten you >authFile = $authFile<(without the arrows).
There is nothing wrong with the file function. It´s supposed to returnan array. If you want it to spit out every element in the array, thenperhaps you could use the print_r, var_dump or var_export functions.If you simply want to get the contents of the file into a string, thenuse file_get_contents().
