Hi BJ.
I think it is a string termination char, because I am trying to put one at
the end of each line in order to save the whole file as a csv.
In order to get each csv to work on whatever platform is being used, I am
doing this:
while( )
{
stuff
stuff
if($platform=="Windows") $file_info.="$last_name,$first_name\r\n";
if($platform=="Macintosh") $file_info.="$last_name,$first_name\r";
if($platform=="Linux") $file_info.="$last_name,$first_name\n";
if($platform=="Unix") $file_info.="$last_name,$first_name\n";
}
The problem is that I get extra line endings and I can't figure out why. Can
you see any reason why this wouldn't work?
Thanks,
steve
