Hello,

I hope somebody can help me out here ...
I'm having a problem with error code while searching a word in a flat file.
My flat file

|~|20091105213652|~|05 november 2011 - 21:36|~|John|~|18 cm|~|text 1|~|text2|~|text3|~|text4|~|text5|~|text6|~|No|~|John.jpg|~|xxx.xxxs.xxx.xxx|~|extra|~|

My php code

<?php
	$database = "path/to/database/text.txt";
	
	$record = file($database);
	rsort($record);
	$amount = count($record);
	$file = 'John.jpg';
	$newname = 'Johnny.jpg';
	$nomrec = 0;
         for ($i=0; $i<$amount; $i++) {
	  	$nomrec++;
		$no++;
		$recno = $nomrec-1;
		    if (isset($record[$recno])) {
				$row = explode("|~|",$record[$recno]);
					if ($row[12] == $file) {
						$row[12] = $newname; 
						$id = $row[1];
						
						echo "<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN\" \"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd\">
							<html xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\">

							<form method=\"post\" name=\"rename\" id=\"rename\" action=\"link_to_action_file.php\" enctype=\"multipart/form-data\">

								<input type=\"text\" name=\"vname\" size=\"30\" value=\"$row[3]\" /><br />
								<input type=\"text\" name=\"vline1\" size=\"30\" value=\"$row[4]\" /><br />
								<textarea name=\"vline2\" cols=\"40\" rows=\"3\">".htmlspecialchars_decode(htmlentities($row[5]))."</textarea><br />
								<textarea name=\"vline3\" cols=\"40\" rows=\"3\">".htmlspecialchars_decode(htmlentities($row[6]))."</textarea><br />
								<textarea name=\"vline4\" cols=\"40\" rows=\"3\">".htmlspecialchars_decode(htmlentities($row[7]))."</textarea><br />
								<textarea name=\"vline5\" cols=\"40\" rows=\"3\">".htmlspecialchars_decode(htmlentities($row[8]))."</textarea><br />
								<input type=\"text\" name=\"vline6\" value=\"$row[9]\"><br />
								<input type=\"text\" name=\"vline7\" size=\"30\" value=\"$row[10]\" /><br />
								<input type=\"text\" name=\"vline8\" value=\"$row[11]\"><br />
								<input type=\"text\" name=\"vextra\" size=\"30\" maxlength=\"100\" value=\"$row[14]\"><br />";
								
					} else echo "doesn't exist";
			} 
	} 
?>

My output shows good, it only shows the row with the name John.jpg but I also get 3 times "doesn't exist" too which is normal because of the loop.
How can I solve this problem so that I get only "doesn't exist" if the file really doesn't exists.

Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Coderunner

$record = file($database);
foreach($record as $r){
  $pos = strstr($r,"John.jpg");
  if($pos !== false){
    $hold[] = $r;
  }
}
if(isset($hold))print_r($hold);

This should find them
