I have txt file with 30 values in line separated with space.
12.09.11 0:01 16.2 16.2 16.2 72 11.2 3.1 SE 0.19 3.6 SE 15.9 15.9 15.7 761.8 0.00 0.0 0.001 0.000 20.9 46 8.9 19.8 8.65 1.1902 13 1 56.5 1
12.09.11 0:02 16.2 16.2 16.2 72 11.2 3.1 SE 0.19 4.0 SE 15.9 15.9 15.7 761.8 0.00 0.0 0.001 0.000 20.9 46 8.9 19.8 8.65 1.1903 23 1 100.0 1

I'm not so good with PHP-array so i stuck with this:
<?PHP
$file_handle = fopen("data.txt", "rb");
while (!feof($file_handle) ) {
$textline = fgets($file_handle);
print $textline[0] . $textline[1]. $textline[2] . "<BR>";
}
fclose($file_handle);
?>
It gets me the output of 3 first character on line, in this case it looks like:
12.
12.
12.
But i need tottaly separated data values in arrays, so the output should look like this:
12.09.11 0:01 16.2
12.09.11 0:02 16.2
12.09.11 0:03 16.2
P.S. Also i need to avoid first 3 lines from reading, it shoudl allways start reading from 4th line.
Any tips or advice how to script it properly ? Thanx!

The below code reads a text file line by line.
<?php
$file = "/tmp/file1.txt";
$f = fopen($file, "r");
while ( $line = fgets($f, 1000) ) {
print $line;
}
?>
So, the same way, you can use:
<?php
$file = "data.txt";
$f = fopen($file, "r");
$myArray = array();
while ( $line = fgets($f) ) {
$myArray[] = explode(" ", $line);
}
print_r($myArray);
?>
