I'm using this code to add user input to a text file:
<?php
//establish variables
$myFile = "chapter2.txt";
$fh = fopen($myFile, 'a') or die("can't open file");
$name = $_POST["name"];
$gnumber = $_POST["gnumber"];
fwrite($fh, $name);
fwrite($fh, "
");
fwrite($fh, $gnumber);
fclose($fh);
?>
However, it adds it to the text file like this:
namegnumber
Instead of this:
name
gnumber
Why does this happen?
Sounds like you are viewing your output via HTML, in which case output will not be line broken with just .
fwrite($fh, "<br />".PHP_EOL);
There are a couple of things you can try. The main one being: try using fwrite($fh,PHP_EOL) instead of fwrite($fh," ");, as this will ensure your script generates the right line ending for the OS you're on.
