Simple question: New line in text file?

[Zezombia]

I'm posting this from an AJAX script:

 

<?php
$file = fopen('log.txt', 'a');
fwrite($file, '\r\n' . $_GET['name'] . ': ' . $_GET['text']);
fclose($file);
?>

 

Unfortunately it literary writes \r\n instead of creating a new line.  What's the proper method of doing this?

You need to use double-quotes around the \r\n

Another method is to use the PHP constant PHP_EOL
