I have a php script that reads a file that looks something like this:

1.  Question One goes here:
2.  Question two goes here:

I need someway to have the script just read either the 1. or just the 1
When I first made the script I just had the program read the line using
$questionBuffer = fgets($wq, 4096);  and then I got the number by using
a substring message: $currentQuestion = substr("$questionBuffer",0,1);
and this works fine until I hit questions like 10 11...
So how should I go about just getting the question number, ideally I
would like to just read up until the first space is encountered.   Is
there a function to do that or will I need to create a for loop that
goes through and compares each substring of 1 character to " ", and then
once that " " is found, create a substring up until that " " character
was found?  Any ideas?
