RE: [PHP-DB] Re: Breaking up new lines for e-mail

Thanks for your reply. Word wrap seems to be ok. What does seem to be a problem is the line breaks... For example, they might type in the following (between the dashed lines): ------------------------------ Hi, Please send me some info. Thanks, Gav ------------------------------ When I receive the mail, however, it looks like this: ------------------------------ Hi, Please send me some info. Thanks, Gav ------------------------------ This is fine for such a short message, but lengthy messages would be horrid to read if all the line breaks were taken out...

I'm sending the e-mail in plain text. There is wordwrap() but that function is broken in several PHP versions and even had a buffer overflow security problem, so I gave up on using it at all. What I use is a function that is part of a message composing and sending class that basically does the same as wordwrap except that it works well in all PHP versions without any security problems.
