Hey everyone. I ran into a really weird issue that I was hoping I could
find some clarification on. In short, I have javascript functions that
operate on hidden text values. Those values may be posted, in which
case PHP then prints them back to the page via what comes in on $_POST.
The weird thing is, I was no longer able to match substrings inside
those hidden text values after posting via Javascript. I banged my head
over this for a couple hours, until I realized that the string's length
was being increased by one after posting (I found this out in
javascript). Upon further investigation, I found that all instances of
substring\n were being replaced by substring(carriage return)\n
after post.
It may be the browser that is converting those line breaks.
From the HTML spec.:
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#h-17.13.4.1:
application/x-www-form-urlencoded
...
Line breaks are represented as CR LF pairs (i.e., `%0D%0A').
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#h-17.13.4.2:
multipart/form-data
...
CR LF (i.e., `%0D%0A') is used to separate lines of data.
