Low ASCII characters

[paulsim]

Hello

How do I get low ASCII chracters into a string.

eg $myvar = $myvar."&#60";

works

but $myvar = $myvar."&#13";
does not work; nothing is added to the string.

Same with $myvar = $myvar.chr(60);

This works - chr(9) does not.

It seems you can down down as low as 14 and the low ASCII character gets added to the string, but 13 and below don't get added.

Now in BASIC you can add CHR$(13) etc and lower - no problem.

You can do it in C - but another way.

But not in PHP.

How can I add ASCII 9 to a string??

Any ideas???

ascii char number 9 is tabulation which
equals \t
so you should do
$string=$string."\t";

Hello Peio

Thanks for the reply.

Agree that should work - but it doesn't under the conditions I am working. I am doing that to a string that I then save using output, but the tabs do not appear in the outputted file.

Very strange.
