Please help. I am trying to load a file from a website which will then echo a certain line or lines which I specify.

The file function in the PHP manual is here but I don't know how to do what I am wanting. I hope all you smart people can help! Thanks. Smile

Code:
<?php
// read the file
$f = file('http://www.example.com/');
// echo lines 5, 8, and 42
echo trim($f[4]), "<br>\n";
echo trim($f[7]), "<br>\n";
echo trim($f[41]), "<br>\n";
?>

Wow! Thanks very much. It looks so easy now you have shown me it and I feel stupid now Smile

One last question. How would I make the text automatically go onto a new line after so many characters only during a space. Thanks very much.

The output automatically goes to a new line... If it's not, just put the echo output in between <p> tags..
