Your example doesn't show what you are doing with "data" after you've 
read it. Presumably you're outputting it somehow, which is where you see 
that it doesn't contain the whole file. But are you sure the problem is 
in the reading, and not in the outputting? Could you show the section of 
the code where you output "data"?
