[PHP] (again)Writing new lines in txt- files?=)

[Mårten Andersson]

hello again! =)

I.m using fwrite() to write to the file. What I want is a new row i a 
textdocument after each strung I insert..

I've been told that \n should be the solution to the problem whith new 
rows i a text-document. But I am not sure that's want I wanted... =) I'll 
try to be more specific.. I want to write a new row in a text document, the 
meaning whith that is that I want to create a logfile. And It would be mutch 
easier to read it if each row is a new hit to the site.
When I inserted \n in the end of the string, it didn't created a new row 
in the text file. It only created a new row when I printed out the file. But 
I want a new row IN the textfile.. =)
=) I hope I didn't complicate this matter too mutch whith my bad english.. 
=)

Thank's folk's //M.

  I want to write to a textfile, but I want a row for each string I write 
to
  the file. As it is now when I write to the file it just starts writing
where
  the last string ends..
 
  What should I do? =)

How are you writing to the file currently?  Could you send some code?  One
way that would work if you are on *NIX would be as follows:

$foo = foobar.txt;
System(echo blahblahblah  $foo);

If you are doing it some other way, why not just echo a newline before each
string you send?
$s = string you want in file;
$s2 = \n . $s;

Uhm, so you want:

Line 1
Line 2
Line 3

Is that correct?  If it is, then \n is your answer - if you're on a Unix
system, or if you're using a text editor which understands unix line
endings.  If you're on a Mac, you should use \r instead.  And if you're
so unlucky to use Windows, you've got to use \r\n.

This means, $s=Line 1\r\nLine 2\r\nLine 3\r\n; will fill the variable
$s with a string which consists of 3 lines when printed on a Windows
system.
