Cannot detect newline character in string downloaded from the internet.

19 New Member
The string is coming from this url, http://www.elixirwd.com.au/test.php

The Username and Password for this url is,
Username:user
Password: password

Now simply downloading the data using the WebClient classes DownloadString( ) method the below code will not work.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. If FileContents.Contains(ControlChars.NewLine) Then
  2.             MessageBox.Show("Has newline!")
  3.         End If
It will not detect a newline character. Why?

Thanks Alex.

Hi I would like to ask a little bit about the value Environment.Newline: what is it and what is the point of it? Ok, I can see in the docs that it represents "newline" for the current platform - I assume that it is a runtime property, and not compile time? But won't it always be the same anyway - does dotnet run on anything other than windows platforms? So isn't newline always the same?

I'm new to PHP. I see that PHP supports the C printf function, and I've seen examples like printf("Hello world!\n"); however the newline character \n doesn't work - i.e., it does not generate an HTML <br>, which I would have expected - what it does is generate a newline in the html generated text, but since the browser ignores blank lines, this feature appears useless for most applications.

Will newlines ever be standardized? I recently discovered that in a textarea, internet explorer adds \r\n for every newline you enter, while firefox adds \n. I know \r is also used in some places... will this ever be fixed?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
