[Resolved] splitting a string into an array on line breaks

[Chris-the_dude]

hi, I'm trying to split a string into an array, using split()split() . I'd like to divide up the string at every line break. I've tried

$linearray = split("\\\\n", $content);

and

$linearray = split("[\n]", $content);

and both of these just put the whole string into the first element of my $linearray array.

Suggestions or Ideas?

are there different kinds of line breaks? A related question: Why does wordpad recognize some line breaks and not others?

Try explode( "\n" , $content );

i believe you would NEED to have a "\n" actually in the $content variable. otherwise split, explode, ect would not work.......

explode() works perfectly!

Thank you very much for the quick response! I'm a happy dude.
