writing to a file. new line not working.

[cloudll]

Hi guys. im using this line to log any users that log into my site. It writes to the log correctly however it doesn't leave a new a line. Can anyone see what ive done wrong with my code. thanks.

 

fwrite($fh, $_SESSION['username'] . ' at ' . strftime('%c') . "\n");

Really depends on what os you have, you may have to use "\r\n"

thanks, that worked. im using apache on windows 7

Some os accept simply then newline character, some require the carriage return, some require both.

Would i need to change the code depending on what os i was using at the time? or could i leave it as \r\n and it would work no matter what the os?

Best bet is \r\n

Use PHP_EOL

fwrite($fh, $_SESSION['username'] . ' at ' . strftime('%c') . PHP_EOL);
