Answer 1

I would double check that there is not a new line at the end of the file. Maybe even double check inside of php that the line read is not blank.

$lineCount=0;
// while there is another line to read in the file
while (!feof($file))
{
    $lineCount++;
    // Get the current line that the file is reading
    $currentLine = fgets($file);
    if(trim($currentLine) != ''){
        $currentLine = explode('        ',$currentLine) ;
        insert($currentLine) ;
        echo "Inserted line number $lineCount
";
    } else {
        echo "There was a blank line at line number $lineCount.
";
    }
}
