PART     2/    6

END OF REPORT

from big file (1/6 ,3/6 ect..).

I tried doing like this

    $lines = file($file,FILE_IGNORE_NEW_LINES);

    foreach ($lines as $line){

     if(strstr($line,'2/    6')){

         echo $line .'<br>';

     }elseif (preg_match('/(\w+)\s+(\d\end\:\report\d)\s+-->/', $line, $match)){

         print_r($match);

     }

    }

I get only one line from each block

This code snippet will search for lines in the text file that contain the string '2/ 6' and then echo those lines. If you want to extract specific data from each block of 2/6, you can modify the code to capture the relevant information. Here's an example of how you can extract the data for each block:

php
$lines = file($file, FILE_IGNORE_NEW_LINES);
$blocks = [];
$currentBlock = [];

foreach ($lines as $line) {
if (strpos($line, '2/ 6') !== false) {
if (!empty($currentBlock)) {
$blocks[] = $currentBlock;
$currentBlock = [];
}
}

if (!empty($currentBlock)) {
$currentBlock[] = $line;
}
}

// Add the last block to the blocks array
if (!empty($currentBlock)) {
$blocks[] = $currentBlock;
}

foreach ($blocks as $block) {
foreach ($block as $line) {
echo $line . '
';
}
echo '
';
}


This code will extract each block of data that starts with '2/ 6' and store it in the `$blocks` array. Then, it will loop through each block and echo out the lines of data within each block. You can modify this code to extract specific information from each block as needed.
