Problem with explode() and post data
Posted: Thu Oct 24, 2002 9:09 pm
Hey, havn't been around in a few months with school and all, but I'm finally doing a bit more work on my database.
Anyway, I'm having some frustrating trouble dealing with some form data. Basically, I have a textarea on an input page, and I want the format to be:
when they enter information. On the recieving end I do a
to try to get all of the items. The problem is, each array string entry (except the last) has an extra \n at the end of it, which I've verified with a var_dump, and echoing each entry out. This doesn't happen when I manually enter a string like "Item1\nItem2\nItem3". I don't want those newlines there. I know I could always do a str_replace and get rid of them, but I'd really like to know what's going on.
