Reading INI files with PHP




<?php

$arr=parse_ini_file("Yourfile.INI",true);

echo $arr['SOMETHINGHERE']['youinclude']; // echos 23

echo $arr['SOMETHINGELSE']['YES']; // echos 12

?>

Just edit your .ini file as well as your .php file. Here is a full example:

Mystats.ini:

CODE:

[HP]
AddPerLevel=140
AddPerStr=10
AddPerDef=0
AddPerMagi=0
AddPerSpeed=0
[MP]
AddPerLevel=220
AddPerStr=0
AddPerDef=0
AddPerMagi=10
AddPerSpeed=0
[SP]
AddPerLevel=330
AddPerStr=0
AddPerDef=0
AddPerMagi=0
AddPerSpeed=20

Now, I want to get AddPerLevel under MP.

PHP:


<?php

$arr=parse_ini_file("mystats.INI",true);

echo $arr['MP']['AddPerLevel']; // echos 220

?>

It's a pretty simple tutorial, enjoy!

Diablosblizz	Zerocool, you could use the fopen function.

MOD-Shadow	if you use fopen it'll open the whole file, though you could most likely use file(); then check which line contains the content you want to edit.
