Take a look at file(); and just loop through the resulting array
and removing all the blank elements.

Subject: [PHP] importing text file

I have a text file that is formatted as such

Something - SomethingElse
<4 blank lines>
SomethingMore
<4 blank lines>
Something - SomethingElse
<4 blank lines>
SomethingMore
<4 blank lines>
and so on

Anyone have any ideas on what I would use to get this
into seperate
records that are $Something, $SomethingElse,
$SomethingMore for displaying
in php or even importing into mysql?

I would even go for $Something and just $SomethingMore
with $Something
really being $Something-$SomethingElse. I don't know
if that makes sense.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
