Read each line of a text file to a new array element

I want to enter each line of this text file in to a new array element, and i need the array to end up like so: Array ( [testuser] => 'testpassword' ) by using this text in the text file: 'testuser' => 'testpass'

The code i have now: 

$filename = "logininfo.txt";
$fp = @fopen($filename, 'r'); 
if ($fp) { $LOGIN_INFORMATION = explode("\n", fread($fp, filesize($filename))); }

Use PHP's file function:

$array = file('logininfo.txt');

To ignore newlines and empty lines, provide the appropriate flags:

$array = file('logininfo.txt', FILE_IGNORE_NEW_LINES | FILE_SKIP_EMPTY_LINES );

A good way to solve this, is PHP's parse_ini_file function. Your file will have to look slightly different though, but I assume that is not a problem:

; file contents:
testuser = testpass

And in your PHP file:

$array = parse_ini_file('logininfo.txt', FALSE);

Assuming your file is like this :

user : blah password : somthing

you could do it like this

$arr = array();
$filename = "test.txt";
$fp = fopen( $filename, "r" );
while ( ! feof( $fp ) ) {
   $line = fgets( $fp, 1024 );
   $temp = explode(":", $line);
   $arr[trim($temp[0])] = trim($temp[1]);
}
