Gustav: Christopher give you the differences within unix, dos [return] characters.. you can use chop() perl function to strip carrige return of the strings, example: $line = chop(fgets($fileHandler, 1024)); also you can use str_replace: function file2unix($stringFile) { return /* mac case */ str_replace("\r", "\n", /* dos case */ str_replace("\r\n/", "\n", $stringFile)); } $line = file2unix(fgets($fileHandler, 1024)); I can use preg_replace but can't find /(\r\n|\r)/ but maybe it finds the alone carrige returns and not the carrige return with the newline after... <gustav@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> escribió en el mensaje news:60258.193.10.176.87.1100694096.squirrel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Hello! > > I have a problem.
