Folks,

 

I'm working with this mail function again.

 

Unhappily.

 

The mail message is created using data off of an html form using radio
buttons, selects, text input, etc.

 

The oddest thing is happening.  Sometimes newlines are ignored.

 

Where formated like this:

 

$message = @<<<END

This is field 1: $field1

This is field 2: $field2

This is field 3: $field3

This is field 4: $field4

END;

 

Or like this:

$message = "This is field 1:".$field1."\n";

$message .= "This is field 2:".$field2."\n";

$message .= "This is field 3:".$field3."\n";

$message .= "This is field 4:".$field4."\n";

 

The message might look like this:

 

This is field 1: data

This is field 2: data This is field 3: data

This is field 4: $field4

 

The only think I could figure out to do was put a \t after $field2 to force
the newline.  Nothing else I did seem to work.  The data doesn't appear to
have trailing garage either.

 

Any ideas?

 

Margaret Michele
