Subject: Re: [PHP] remove first character in text file

Just want to add to this with a little more info....

my text file is a list of email addresses with a "%" separating them. 
For example:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Now sometimes I end up with a "%" at the beginning. For example:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Or:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Now that causes me issues else where in the script. So what I need to do
is check if the "%" character exists at the beginning of the file and
remove any if the "%" is there.

ideas?
