[PHP] Return Character in a Text File?
I have a slight problem. Is there anyway to make a text file with a return character that doesn't show up in windows notepad as a gibberish character and actually puts a return in it? Right now I'm using the \n for the return but it doesn't get read in notepad as a return so the string data is one long line instead of multiple lines. Is there any other way of doing this? Code I am using: $data = ; //loop $data .= $firstName, $lastName, $email, $gender, $bday, $phone, $zip,\n; //end of loop Thanks!
