PHP problems when transfering code from Windows to OS X

Question

I have recently bought a new MacBook Pro. Before I had my MacBook Pro I was working on a website on my desktop computer. And now I want to transfer this code to my new MacBo

Answer 1

Finally found an easy way to fix this! I was looking through the php.ini file when i came across an option which is named: auto_detect_line_endings, and has its default value set to: Off.

The description to this option is:

; If your scripts have to deal with files from Macintosh systems,
; or you are running on a Mac and need to deal with files from
; unix or win32 systems, setting this flag will cause PHP to
; automatically detect the EOL character in those files so that
; fgets() and file() will work regardless of the source of the file.
; http://php.net/auto-detect-line-endings

Which is exactly what i was looking for!

I simply used the ini_set() function at the beginning of my database file(which i load on every php page) and it seems to have solved the problem for me! The ini_set() function also returns the option changed in the php.ini file to normal when script is completed.

Full line of the ini_set() function that i used:

ini_set("auto_detect_line_endings", true);

Thanks for all your help guys!
