nothing? :(

How are you storing the information? Database? Flatfile?

i'm storing the info in a textfile.. is that the same as a flatfile?

You cannot simply delete a line from text file. You have to read whole file into memory, delete line, and save whole file to disk.

something like

$text = file('textfile');

find the line to delete, unset() it

$f = fopen('textfile','w');

fputs($f, join('',$text));

fclose($f);

ok.. i now have a file that show's sorts out each news, so I get them up with a "Delete" link next to them:

<?php
$file = "store/news.txt";
$news = file($file);
foreach ($news as $key => $value) {
$key = $key+1;
echo "<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=1 bgcolor=" . $td[0] . "><tr><td bgcolor=" . $td[3] . ">" . $value . "</td><td bgcolor=" . $td[3] . " align=center><a href=delete.php?type=news&id=" . $key . ">Delete</a></td></tr></table>";
}
?>

and I'm now working on the delete.php file.. What I've got so far is:

<?php
$file = "store/news.txt";
$selLine = $_GET['id'];
$news = file($file);
?>

So what I wonder now is. On the delete link I have numbers for what line each news are on in the news.txt file. But in the delete.php, how do I pull out that single line and just overwrite it with a empty space?

Do I have to add an foreach and when I come to the selected number I just skip that one, and at the end I write the everything back to the news.txt file?

Well, after some trying and failing i got it to work:

This is the code I used:
I fixed it with the following code:
---
<?php

$selLine = $_GET['id'];
$delType = $_GET['type'];
$file = "store/" . $delType . ".txt";
$news = file($file);
$cnt = 0;

foreach ($news as $key => $line) {
if ($key!= $selLine) { $result[] = $line; }
$cnt+1;
}
if ($key!= 0) {
$fh = fopen($file, "w");
foreach ($result as $nyhet) {
fwrite($fh, $nyhet);
}
fclose($fh);
}
elseif ($key == 0) {
$fh = fopen($file, "w");
fwrite($fh, "");
fclose($fh);
}

?>
