do this:

echo '<pre>';
print_r($file);
echo '</pre>';

im pretty sure you'll only see 1 key..
if each has its own line, you would see something like:

Array
(
   [0] => foo
   [1] => foo
   [2] => foo
   [3] => foo
)

etc...

When I open the list in notepad everything is on one line with a
square box character.
When I open it in wordpad, it's one email address on each line.

if you're only getting a value of 1 it is likely putting everything on a
single array key..

I'm having a problem with the following code:

<?php
$file = "http://www.mysite.co.uk/mailing_list_database.list";;
$lines = count(file($file));
echo "$lines ";
?>

I'm trying to show the number of subscribers to my visitors from a
text file, but it returns a value of 1 when it should be 5000.
I think it's to do with recognising the line break but I don't know
how to make it work!?!

(I've looked on php.net for the file, fopen & count functions and
can't find anything, although fopen mentions using the -t mode.
Any ideas?

Thanks,

Tom
