Reading specific line of a file in PHP

Question

I am working on reading a file in php. I need to read specific lines of the file.

I used this code:

fseek($file_handle,$start);
while (!feof($file_ha

You could do like:

$lines = file($filename); //file in to an array
echo $lines[1];           //line 2

OR

$line = 0;
$fh = fopen($myFile, 'r');

while (($buffer = fgets($fh)) !== FALSE) {
   if ($line == 1) {
       // $buffer is the second line.
       break;
   }   
   $line++;
}
