[PHP-DB] I have a CR-LF problem when pulling stuff out of my DB
This may not be exaxtly PHP-DB related but it is a result of screwing something up . I pulled a bunch of data from a DOS formatted tab seperated file and now I am dumping back out into a text file (on linux). So, as you can imagine, I ended up with a bunch of ^M throughout the file. I plan on fixing this. The solution is easy enough. I just need to remember to open the text files in vim and save as unix files. However, I now have an immediate need. I want to open these five files in vim and find and replace the ^M in every instance. I know how to find and replace (:g/find//s/replace/g). But I cannot get the ^M in the string. If I actually hit it reads as a return; if I type ^M using the shift-6 then it looks for the actual characters. Can anyone help? -- Michael Cortes Fort LeBoeuf School District 34 East Ninth Street PO Box 810 Waterford PA 16441-0810 814.796.4795 -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Actually, an easier tool to use is dos2unix, which is available on most Linux boxes.

Re: [PHP-DB] I have a CR-LF problem when pulling stuff out of my DB
That didn't work. Here's why. This is not a dos file. It is a unix file but when dumping the data from my db, some fields had a trailing CR and LF. So what I ended up with was a ^M showing in the middle of a line when I open the file in vim. And... the lines will also end where they shouldn't. What is supposed to be one line, then continues on the next. While dos2unix did strip out the ^m, it left the LF (is it return or linefeed in unix) at the end of the line, starting a new one. I need to actually do a search on ^M followed by LF and replace it with nothing so I get my full line back. But I don't know how to enter in LF or CR in a vim search string. Hope this clarifies.

Re: [PHP-DB] I have a CR-LF problem when pulling stuff out of my DB
I found part of the answer.. when doing a search in vim you can hit ctrl-m as long as you hit ctrl-v first. ctrl-v tells vim to treat the following as a character, not to do the action i.e... carriage return. Now I need just one more piece, if anyone has the answer: ctrl-m is a carriage return. Does anyone know what ctrl seqence is line feed?

[PHP-DB] IBM DB2
Hi Is anyone using PHP to connect to an IBM DB2 database? The reason why I am asking is becaouse I want to see if the odbtp extension can be used to successfully prepare and execute DB2 stored procedures. So far, ODBTP performs quite well with IBM DB2 in regards to regular queries. -- bob -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP-DB] I have a CR-LF problem when pulling stuff out of my DB
Maybe I'm missing something...but why not do this with PHP (seeing as
how this is a PHP list)?
ereg_replace('(\r|\n)', ' ', $string)
Just a thought
