I researched a lot of questions and answers posted on stackoverflow about the subject but I still couldn't find a solution to the following problem.
I need to generate an array from the text provided by this link, minus some specific lines: https://code.wireshark.org/review/gitweb?p=wireshark.git;a=blob_plain;f=manuf. This part I was able to do.
PHP Code:
$arr = file('https://code.wireshark.org/review/gitweb?p=wireshark.git;a=blob_plain;f=manuf');
$arr = preg_replace('/^(?![a-z0-9]{2}:[a-z0-9]{2}:[a-z0-9]{2}\s).*$/i', '', $arr);
$arr = preg_replace ('/#/i', '',$arr);
$arr = preg_replace('/\t+/', ' ', $arr);
$arr = preg_replace('/\s{2,}/', ' ', $arr);
$arr = preg_replace('/ /', '~', $arr, 2);
foreach ($arr as $field)
{
$macList[] = explode('~', $field);
}
echo "<pre>";
print_r($macList);
echo "</pre>";
The problem is that when I use print_r, the first 52 sub-arrays are empty, plus some dozens at the bottom. I can't figure out how to remove them.
Reduced print_r output, because the full output returns 25770 sub-arrays:

Question: How do I remove these 52 (0 to 51) empty arrays? Nothing I tried worked.
