Make a txt file display in reverse

Can some one tell me how to reverse the text file so it displays what goes in last first.

Cheers in advance

here is the code:

<html>
<head>
<title>test Text</title>
</head>
<body>
<div style='overflow:auto; width:230px; height:500px; background-color:orange'>
<fieldset width="200">
<legend>
<b>Message Board:</b>
</legend>

<form method="POST" action="text.php" style="font-family:verdana; font-size:10pt">
Nickname:<br><input type="text" name="name" size="25"/><br>
Comment:<br><textarea name="comment" rows="4" cols="23">
</textarea><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
<input type="reset" value="Reset" />
</form>
</fieldset>

<?php
$date= date("d/m/y");
$name=$_POST['name'];
$comment=$_POST['comment'];

if ($comment != "" )
{
$myFile = "testFile.txt";
$fh = fopen($myFile, 'a') or die("can't open file");
$stringData = "<b>Posted: $date</b>\n<br>";
fwrite($fh, "$stringData");
$stringData = "\"$comment\"\n<br>";
fwrite($fh, "$stringData");
$stringData = "<b>By:$name</b>\n<hr>";
fwrite($fh, $stringData);
fclose($fh);
}

else
{
echo "<b style='color:red'>Please fill in all fields!</b>";
}
?>

<?php

$myFile = "testFile.txt";
$fh = fopen($myFile, 'r');
$theData = fread($fh, filesize($myFile));
fclose($fh);

echo "
<table border='0' width='210' align='center'>
<tr>
<td style='font-family:verdana; font-size:8pt'>
$theData
</td>
</tr>
</table>

";
?>
<?php

?>
</div>
</body>
</html>

php Code:

$arr = file( YOUR_FILE );
$arr = array_reverse( $arr );

Thanks for the code. could you elaborate on this code as to where to use it in my code above. thanks in advance

That takes all the fun out of learning. :)

php Code:

$myFile = "testFile.txt";
$fh = fopen($myFile, 'r');
$theData = fread($fh, filesize($myFile));
fclose($fh);

Would be...

php Code:

$myFile = 'testFile.txt';
$theData = array_reverse( file( $myFile ) );

foreach ( $theData as $row )
    echo $row . '<br />';

Or however you wish. There's about 3,141.59265 ways to do anything in PHP.

Thank You very much. Works a treat, didnt relise how easy that was gonna be.

cheers
