TalkPHP - View Single Post - Adding content to a specific line in file

I'm relatively new to PHP so bare with me.I'm trying to replace a specific line to a file. This is my code so far:

PHP Code:


			
$string = "Blah blah blah

<!-- comment -->";

$file = fopen("file.txt", "r"); // Open file



if($file){

while(!feof($file)){  // Before end of file

$read = fgets($file, 1000);  // read line

if ($read=="<!-- comment -->"){ // if right line

$read = $string; // change to variable

}}

fclose($file);

}

I'm unable to test this at the moment, so if someone could check this and/or suggest anything better that would be helpful.

Cheers.
