[SOLVED] Problems with Email Class. Newline and Crlf

[eluser]Sinclair[/eluser]
Hi,

I'am with some problems in the emails class.

My application write the emails to the database and then I read the emails from the database to send them.

My configurations for Newline and Crlf are the following:

Code:

$config['protocol'] = 'sendmail';
        $config['mailpath'] = '/usr/sbin/sendmail';
        $config['charset'] = 'utf-8';
        $config['wordwrap'] = TRUE;
        $config['mailtype'] = 'text';
        $config['newline'] = '\r\n';
        $config['crlf'] = '\r\n';

1 - When I test sending the email like this, the newline and crlf works:

Code:

$this->email->message("Testing \n\nFFF");

This results in:

Testing

FFF

2 - But if I read from the database with the same content, does not work, the message appear like this:

Code:

$this->email->message($dados_email->email_msg);

This results in:

Testing \n\nFFF

What can I do to solve this problem?

What do you get when you echo out the variable from the DB? Is it printing the characters or the carriage return?

Hi,

The problem is solved. The problem was the database that escape "\". My solution was to replace the "@break_line@" in the message with "\n" using str_replace(). Dumb solution but it works.

In active record class you can pass false to some of your DB statements to disable escaping the data.
