Use myFile= file() which puts all your lines in a nice simple array.
The use foreach()on the array to exact your sub-strings.
Personally, I'd assemble the results in a big string. Then, echo the string.
$fields= NULL;
foreach(myFile as $line){
$fields .=
"substr($line, 0, 5)" .
" nbsp;" .
"substr($line, 7, 46)" .
"<br />\n\n";
}
echo $fields;

I got a larger file which consists of lines with a defined length of 56
characters. Each line ends with a line feed (0A),
From each line I want one field from position 1 ~ 5 and field 2 from
position 7 ~ 46.
I tried:
$myFile = "plaiso";
$fh = fopen($myFile, 'r');
$theDataLine = explode("\n",fgets($fh));
echo "Field1 Field2<p>"; // headline
for($i=0;$i<count($theDataLine);$i++){
$Field1 = substr($theDataLine[$i], 0, 5);
$Field2 = substr($theDataLine[$i], 7, 46);
echo "$Field1 $Field2";
}
It prints only the headline and the first record.
What do I miss?
