I need to read a file of names and email addresses

I can use fgets() to read each line, but I am not sure
how to use strtok($myString, "\n") to parse the
individual elements on each line.

Jon Doe myemail@aol.com

tab delimited ^^

what I have is a very crude attempt:
$file = @fopen("test_email.txt", "r") or exit("Unable to open file!");

while (!feof($file)) {
$myString = fgets($file, 4096);
$token = strtok($myString, "\n");

while ($token !== false)
{
echo "$token<br/>";
$myString = strtok($myString, "\n");
}
}
fclose($handle);

what I have just locks up the browser

insight would be appreciated
thank you
Kevin
