note 55526 added to function.fopen

When designing a few flatfile databases and admin panels, I stumbled upon an interesting thing. If a file has been generated into a page or variable via the readfile or include methods (did not try require), an ereg or preg replace to replace \n with <br> does not detect any \n in the file. However, when attempting the same thing with fopen, fread, it works perfectly. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fopen.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+55526 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55526&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55526&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55526&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55526&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55526&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55526&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+55526&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
