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         


        

Answer 1

Try this,the simplest one

$buffer=explode("\n",file_get_contents("filename"));//Split data to array for each "\n"

Now the buffer is an array and each array index contain each lines; To get the 5th line

echo $buffer[4];
