Hi,
So I'm having a problem with disappearing newlines. I import the
newlines from a file into my shell script fine. But then I process the
text and the url_encode comes out the other end with linefeeds intact
but no newlines.
Also any single quotes in my file give me a T_STRING unexpected error
in my output ... even though I'm using rawurlencode(). I've tried
escaping them in my text but no luck there.
I can live without the single quotes, but I need newlines in my output.
URL="`cat job_description`"
URL_ENCODED_DESCRIPTION=`php -r "echo rawurlencode('$URL');"`
.... the single quotes works fine - the php function returns a value -
so that's not a problem.
Can anyone help me get a urlencoded string with newlines intact ?
Otherwise I'm just left with a lump of text.
Also I can't use <br> or \n in my output because my message board won't
parse them ... :-)
