These files were already done from last year, so I figured I would just carry on with them. Last year they did not have to be manipulated - so it wasn't a big deal. I have since changed the whole thing and am now using a database (took me a whole 45 minutes), which I was using anyway to hold all my other info. I'd still be curious though as to why the other way did not work.

Anyway here's some psuedo-code: $file = file('file); foreach ($file as $line => $data) { $file[$line] = trim($data); if (!strcmp($what_you_are_looking_for, $file[$line])) { // found, do your replacement stuff } } implode('choose a suitable EOL character(s)', $file); write_out_file(); -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.biz Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications Development * ------------------------------------------ Search the list archives before you post http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general ------------------------------------------ /* GOOD-NIGHT, everybody ...
