(and Derick promised it would be fixed by 4.3.0 :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-09 23:13:59] dphelan@bcps.org In PHP 4.1.2 (and 4.2.0-dev) Calling file() on a 4-line text file with Macintosh line endings (CR) results in a 1-element array: file: (file.txt) blah test three four Code: $array = file( 'file.txt. ); echo count( $array ); >> Returns '1' (Verified by print_r) file() is ignoring the line endings, but the correct result happens for files with Windows (CRLF) and Unix (LF) line endings. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=16521&edit=1
