String search in two text files

Please tell me if this code is correct for searching a string in PTIN with contents in PTOUT. I am not getting the correct result. Please help.

Code:

---

while(fgets(text, MAX_LEN_SINGLE_LINE, ptin)!=NULL)
                {
                 
                if(text[strlen(text)-1]=='\n')
                text[strlen(text)-1]='\0';
             
           
                                while(fgets(textchk, MAX_LEN_SINGLE_LINE, ptout)!=NULL)
                                {
                                        a=strstr(textchk,text);
                                       
                                        if(a==NULL)
                                                fprintf(p1,"%s",text);
                                        else
                                                continue;
                                }rewind(ptout);
            }

Your indention is terrible.

You're printing the line only if you don't find a match. Also, your usage of continue is rather..... odd.

As in "it's completely meaningless in this context".
