[FX.php List] Sending carriage returns within a string into FM field

[Dale Bengston]

Indeed, Joel. It goes something like this:

Classic Mac OS: CR
UNIX / OS X: LF
Windows: CRLF

Where 
CR (carriage return) = \r
LF (newline or line feed) = \n

Dale

PS: Tying this to Bob P's original problem, \r and \t must be surrounded by double quotes to evaluate properly in PHP.
