Hi guys,

I have script which scraps content from web and writes it down in a text file, now everything seems to be okay. Its scraps and writes well but the problem is when i open that text file one weird character keeps coming after some words which i don't know about.

 

I have attached the text file, will you guys please look at it and tell me how to replace that square looking character into new line in text file.

Try this and see if see the character

 

<?php
//read a file
$my_file = "iplist.txt";
if (file_exists($my_file)) {
$data = file($my_file);
$total = count($data);
echo "<br />Total lines: $total<br />";
foreach ($data as $line) {
$line = trim($line);
echo "$line<br />";
}

//add a new line to end
$write = fopen($my_file, 'a+');
$message = "127.0.0.1\r\n";
fputs($write, $message);
fclose($write);

/*note the w, this will overwrite the entire contents
$write = fopen($my_file, 'w');
$message = "I just added this line\r\n";
fputs($write, $message);
fclose($write);
*/

} else {
echo "No file to display";
}
?>

 

Here's a demo of the code, as can see is no strange characters.
