aabid Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 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.

QuickOldCar Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 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. http://get.blogdns.com/dynaindex/read-write-file.php Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/231836-text-file-new-line-character/#findComment-1192836 Share on other sites More sharing options...
