Hi guys, gals!

        I have a pretty big string that I am inserting into MySQL via the
$dbh->quote($str) function, this works great however now when I pull the
data back out of the database and go to write it to a file the \n characters
that were inserted by quote are not being written back out as carriage
returns as desired.  How can do a reverse of quote() or just get those
"\n"'s to print out as they should! =) ahh.. I'm frustrated, I tried
everything even split('\n',$str) and then reinserting the "\n".  Doesn't
work, please help!

Thanks in advance!

What do you mean by "as they should"? After all, "\n" isn't a carriage return.
