For something as simple as

For something as simple as that, just get the line and discard it.

You can just call the fgets($fp); without assigning it to anything, or assign it to a dummy variable, or a date variable. (Note, I'm using the fgets, NOT fgetss, as since it is being discarded, no need to also process it to strip tags)

I did a quick check though, didn't see anything. If there was something, it would still pretty much have to do the same functionality (search for the end of the line, move the pointer), just no return the content between current end of line and the new one.
