Request: Send a blank email to php-general+get-82162@lists.php.net to get a copy of this message
Ok I'm having a problem with the new line char \n in strings. I'm trying to contrast an email that gets sent with the mail() function. Here is what I'm doing. $message = "line1\n"; $message .= "line2\n\n"; $message .= "line3\n"; ... $message = "lne99"; mail ("email", "subject", $message); but when the email is received not all the new lines r taken. Can anyone help me. Also where can I get a list of all the special chars like \n and what they meain. Greg
