Adding carriage return within a text file

[Claus Mygind]

I am creating a text file from an array. I need a specific format with blank lines inserted between lines of data. I need "0D 0A 0D 0A", but all I am getting is "0A 0A".

My app is run on a windows xP platform.

Here is how I store the data in the array

        array_push($cData,     array(
            $aProject["Project_Name"],
            $aProject["Point_Page1_Depth"],
            $aProject["Water_Unit_Wt"],
            $aProject["Coeff_of_Consol_Factor"],
            $aProject["Name"],
            $aProject["Datum"]));
 
//note the empty cell which in my previous language gave me 0D 0A, but in php only generates 0A
        array_push($cData,     array(""));
        array_push($cData,     array("**POINT"));
 

I steam out the data for download like this

            /*
            -------------------------------------------------------
            create handle for raw data file
            -------------------------------------------------------
            */
            $rawData = "c:/temp/test.csv";
 
            /*
            -------------------------------------------------------
            look for file if found delete it because "into outfile" 
            will not overwrite existing file
            -------------------------------------------------------
            */
            $fh = fopen($rawData, 'w') or die("can't open file");
            fclose($fh);
            unlink($rawData);
 
            /*
            -------------------------------------------------------
            open file using handle
            -------------------------------------------------------
            */
            $fh = fopen($rawData, 'w') or die("can't open file");
 
            /*
            -------------------------------------------------------
            loop through main array $cData
            and write each sub-array data to file as a line of data
            then close input file.
            -------------------------------------------------------
            */
            foreach ($cData as $fields) {
                fputcsv($fh, $fields);
            }
 
            fclose($fh);
 
            /*
            -------------------------------------------------------
            create handle for gInt file 
            -------------------------------------------------------
            */
            $outputFileName = 'gINT_upload.txt';
            $fullOutputName = "c:/temp/".$outputFileName;
 
            /*
            -------------------------------------------------------
            look for exiting output file, if found delete it.
            -------------------------------------------------------
            */
            $fh = fopen($fullOutputName, 'w') or die("can't open file");
            fclose($fh);
            unlink($fullOutputName);
 
            /* 
            -------------------------------------------------------
            create final output file 
            -------------------------------------------------------
            */
            $fh = fopen($fullOutputName,"a+") or die("can't open file");
 
            /*
            -------------------------------------------------------
            write into output file
            -------------------------------------------------------
            */
            fputs( $fh,rtrim(file_get_contents($rawData)) );
 
            /* 
            -------------------------------------------------------
            close output file 
            -------------------------------------------------------
            */
            fclose($fh);
 
            /*
            -------------------------------------------------------
            force download request to open on client.
            -------------------------------------------------------
            */
            if($result) {
                header('Pragma: public');
                header('Expires: 0');
                header('Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0');
                header('Cache-Control: public');
                header('Content-Description: File Transfer');
                header('Content-Type: plain/text');
                header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename='.$outputFileName);

I see my problem is "fputcsv($fh, $fields);" - this only adds 0a to the end of each line

whereas I can add 0a 0d with "fputs ($fh, "\r\n" );"

So the question becomes is there a way to add the "0d" with fputcsv?

The nice feature with fputcsv it it automatically adds delimiters around my text that contains commas.

[Claus Mygind]

Well fputs( $fh, "\r\n" ); is the way I got it to work.
