Good night to all.
I have this problem:
 

I have this function > 

<?php
function read_items($data_to_read){
if(is_file($data_to_read)){
$file = fopen ($data_to_read, 'r');
while ($current_data_item = fgets($file) !== FALSE){
$item_data_info = fscanf($file, "%d %d %[^\n]s"); 
list($item_primary_key, $item_id, $item_name) = $item_data_info;
if(!empty($item_name) && !empty($item_id)){
echo '<option value="'.$item_id.'">'.$item_id.'</option>';
}
}
fclose($file);
}
}
?>

And i use it like this

<?php read_items('items.txt'); ?>

In Items.txt i have this string lines:

 

1 2621441 Dagger

2 2621442 Scout Dagger

3 2621443 Dirk 

4 2621444 Brave Dirk

5 2621445 Wedge Blade

6 2621446 River Stiletto

7 2621447 Venom Stinger

8 2621448 Onyx Eye Stinger

9 2621449 Blook Dirk

10 2621450 Crystal Gouge

 

And the output is this

Its shows me 5 items not all (10) -.- dunno why.
Any suggestions... about how to get all lines it skips the 2621441, 2621443, 2621445 etc..

the fgets and fscanf function both grab the next line from the filepointer, so fscanf only reads every other line you need to change it to:

 

<?php
function read_items($data_to_read){
    if(is_file($data_to_read)){
        $file = fopen ($data_to_read, 'r');
        while ($item_data_info = fscanf($file, "%d %d %[^\n]s"); !== FALSE){
            list($item_primary_key, $item_id, $item_name) = $item_data_info;
            if(!empty($item_name) && !empty($item_id)){
                echo '<option value="'.$item_id.'">'.$item_id.'</option>';
            }
        }
        fclose($file);
    }
}
?>
