The text file gets formatted just fine when read in Linux but the newlines appear as blocks when viewing in Windows. I've included the scipt that reads and formats the output below. What do I need to use to create real linefeeds or new lines when viewing under windows? TIA, Ed <? include ("../global.php"); mysql_connect ($host, $user, $pass); mysql_select_db ($database); $count = 0; $fp = fopen("$ad_path/example.txt", "w"); $newline = "\n"; $space = " "; $dollar = "\$"; $ln = "-----------"; $br = "Page Break"; $result = mysql_query ("SELECT * FROM listings ORDER by area, price DESC"); if ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { do { fputs($fp, $row['mls']); fputs($fp, $space); fputs($fp, $dollar); fputs($fp, number_format($row['price'], ",")); fputs($fp, $space); fputs($fp, $row['area']); fputs($fp, $newline); fputs($fp, $row['copy']); fputs($fp, $newline); fputs($fp, $newline); $count++; if ($count == 8) { fputs($fp, $ln); fputs($fp, $br); fputs($fp, $ln); fputs($fp, $nl); fputs($fp, $nl); $count = 0; } } while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)); mysql_close(); fclose($fp); } ?> -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
