your CSS needs some help there.
echo "<span style=\"font-family:normal 11 Verdana;font-size:11pt;
color:#fff; text-align:justify;\">";
not sure if the 11 should be in the middle there. is that part of the font
name?

$content=file_get_contents("flatfile.txt");
$content=str_replace("\r\n","\n"); //pc
$content=str_replace("\n\r","\n"); //weird
$content=str_replace("\r","\n"); //mac
//each line as an array element
$arr=split("\n",$content);
for($i=max(0,(count($arr)-1)-5); $i<count($arr); $i++) {
$a=split("|", $arr);
echo "$a[2]\n";
}

to delete an element,
array_splice($arr,$offset,1);

to rewrite the file,
$a=join("\n", $arr);
file_put_contents("flatfile.txt",$a);
