Counting lines

[NLCJ]

Hello,

I'm creating a program that analyzes information that is exported by another program. That program exports it in this way:

Value1 Value2 Value3 Value4

Value1 Value2...

 

In order to insert them in the database, I first have to know how many lines are inserted. They get send through HTML post. I already tried:

$lines = explode("\n", $string);
$number_lines = count($lines);

 

But this always results in 1. How do I fix this?

 

Regards,

Chris
