Writing file without \r\n translation

[frog_jr]

I am in a brain freeze!

I am trying to output strings (obtained from an array) to a file. The string contains \r and \n characters that are not to be interpreted as newlines but written as is to the file.

There are also multiple \'s that can be present...

 

Everything I've tried thus far (addslashes, quotemeta, ...) has had no effect.

For example:

         $test = array("str\rv?\n","as\\\\n\df");
         file_put_contents("Myfile",$test[0]);  // first value to file
         file_put_contents("Myfile","\n");      // a newline
         file_put_contents("Myfile",$test[1]);  // put another value

How do I get this data into the file?

 

Thanks

USE "addslashes" function

 

$test = array('str\rv?\n','as\\\\n\df');

        file_put_contents("Myfile", addslashes($test[0]));  // first value to file

        file_put_contents("Myfile","\n");      // a newline

        file_put_contents("Myfile",addslashes($test[1]));  // put another value

Thanks anup,

My results are that addslashes works for most cases, but seems to be failing on \r\n combinations.

you can use addcslashes, I just tested its working fine

file_put_contents("Myfile", addcslashes("TEST\r\n","\n\r"));

Duh!!

  As I sit here wondering why I didn't do the obvious!

 

Thanks Anup!
