Getting on line for information (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

learning

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'information' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'getting on line for' is the wordplay.
'getting' becomes 'earning' (earning is a kind of getting).
'on' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'line for' becomes 'l' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'earning' put after 'l' is 'LEARNING'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for learning that I've seen before include "Large inn (anag)" , "Erudition - education" , "Lore" , "(Knowledge from) study" , "Researching - scholarship" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
