#30097 [Fbk->Opn]: fgetcsv() does not recognize Mac EOL character (\r) as the EOL marker

ID: 30097 User updated by: dbeckham at dealnews dot com Reported By: dbeckham at dealnews dot com -Status: Feedback +Status: Open Bug Type: Filesystem function related Operating System: Mac OS X 10.3.5 PHP Version: 5.0.1 New Comment: Using "php -d auto_detect_line_endings=1" worked and I was able to successfully read a csv file with \r line endings. That said, wouldn't this config option be better named if it was called "also_support_mac_line_endings"? The config option isn't needed for Unix or PC line endings, as PHP already works out of the box (so to speak) with them. There are only three main types of line endings, Unix, PC and Mac. Why are the Mac line endings singled out like this? Why do they need a special config option to be set, just to recognize them? It's not as if PHP only recognizes the line endings of the platform it's compiled on.

Reproduce code: --------------- Read any CSV file that uses Mac EOL markers using fgetcsv(). Expected result: ---------------- fgetcsv() should recognized Mac EOL (\r) markers as the end of a CSV record. Actual result: -------------- The entire file is read as if it's a single CSV record. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=30097&edit=1
