socallink.txt:
"Facebook","Twitter","Twitter","google-plus","youtube","pinterest","instagram"
PHP:
$file = file_get_contents('./Temp/socallink.txt', true);
$a1 = array($file);
print_r($a1);
Result :
Array
(
[0] => "Facebook","Twitter","Twitter","google-plus","youtube","pinterest","instagram"
)
Needed:
$a1['0']=facebook;
$a1['1']=Twitter;
This solves your problem :
$file = '"Facebook","Twitter","Twitter","googleplus","youtube","pinterest","instagram"'; // This is your file
First remove all the ".
$file = str_replace('"', '', $file);
Then explode at every ,
$array = explode(',',$file);
var_dump($array) gives :
array(7) {
[0]=>
string(8) "Facebook"
[1]=>
string(7) "Twitter"
[2]=>
string(7) "Twitter"
[3]=>
string(11) "google-plus"
[4]=>
string(7) "youtube"
[5]=>
string(9) "pinterest"
[6]=>
string(9) "instagram"
}
Global code looks like :
$file = file_get_contents('./Temp/socallink.txt', true);
$file = str_replace('"', '', $file);
$a1 = explode(',',$file);
Hope this'll help
Since those are Comma Separated Values (CSV), this would probably be the simplest:
$file = file_get_contents('./Temp/socallink.txt', true);
$a1 = str_getcsv($file);
<?php
//fetch the file content
$file = file_get_contents('your file path`enter code here`');
//create an array by breaking the string into array values at the comma ',' point
$a = explode(',',$file);
print_r($a);
//result
// Array ([0] => "Facebook"
// [1] => "Twitter"
// [2] => "Twitter"
// [3] => "google-plus"
// [4] => "youtube"
// [5] => "pinterest"
// [6] => "instagram" )
