This code fails, error message: No input file specified. The text file is on the server.

Code: 
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">[/URL]
<html xmlns="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">[/URL]
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<link href="styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<title>array</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php $descriptions = file(“paintinglist2.txt”); ?>
</body>
</html>[code]

Am I missing something?

It is working now that I added a line.

Code: 
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">[/URL]
<html xmlns="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">[/URL]
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<link href="styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<title>array</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php $descriptions = file("paintinglist2.txt"); ?>
<?php echo $descriptions[1]; ?>

</body>
</html>

However when I insert the code in my main php page. Nothing displays and when I look at the computated code, everything between the <head> and <body> is missing! Please see lines 90-91.

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">[/URL]
