Incoming data into array?

Hi, I'm opening a remote file on a regular basis, the data is in the
following format and has a line feed of "0D 0A". The spaces are 20 in hex
mode.

2006-07-26 22:00:03.000000 4.370996 51.656616
2006-07-26 22:00:03.000000 2.599964 49.286836
2006-07-26 22:00:03.000000 0.876824 48.418013
2006-07-26 22:00:04.000000 1.543656 50.926529
2006-07-26 22:00:04.000000 1.070219 48.759254

Firstly, this incoming data is oldest first and is continually updating.
However it only shows the previous hours data. My main aim is to take this
data and split it into an array. Currently I'm using file_get_contents(),
and am just wondering what the best method to get this into a workable
format?

Thanks

Are there no spaces within fields? Just use fgetcsv() with ' ' as the
delimiter.
