I seem to be having trouble with \n and \r in variables. I write my

you are mixing /n and \n etc etc - stop it :-)
\n is a new line in linux
\r is a new line in (older?) version of MacOS
\r\n is a new line in Windoze
try something along the lines of:
<?php
$string = "\nthis is a test\r\nthis is a test\rthis is a test\nthis is a test";
$finds = array("\n", "\r");
$repls = array(" ***\\n*** "," ***\\r*** ");
echo str_replace($finds, $repls, $string);
\n\r, no? Is there a way the I could print $variable; and have it show
me the /n and /r 's ? I tried with a srt_replace() on /n and on /r,
but they do not get replaced. I also tried escaping the backslash,
then double escaping that as was suggested somewhere in the
php.net/manual, then triple escaping!
I get the impression you need to find out what the difference is between
single and double quotes strings and how escape sequences differ/behave
within them
Thanks ahead of time for any insight.
