Hi, Got a bit of an odd one (I expect it has something to do with the data thats being passed in) 
#    my @split = split /\n|\r/, $message;
    my @split = split /[\n\r]/, $message;

    foreach (@split) {
        $_ =~ s/^[\n\r]//sig;
        $_ =~ s/[\n\r]$//sig;
        print "BLA ... \"$_\" <br />";
    }

[download]
This outputs: 
BLA ... "== another main header"
BLA ... "
"
BLA ... "
"
BLA ... "
dfgdfg"
BLA ... "
"
BLA ... "
=== a sub header"
BLA ... "
dfgdfg"
BLA ... "
"
BLA ... "
=== another new sub header"
BLA ... "
"
BLA ... "
sdfsdf"
BLA ... "
"
BLA ... "
==== a sub-sub header"
BLA ... "
g"
BLA ... "
dsfgdsf"
BLA ... "


The actual code  being passed in (via a textarea box), is:

== another main header


dfgdfg

=== a sub header
dfgdfg

=== another new sub header

sdfsdf

==== a sub-sub header
g
dsfgdsf

I just can't work out why its putting a extra newline breaks, where there shouldn't be (I want one line of data per line, and that it)

Any suggestions?

TIA

Andy
