CGI/Perl -> Replace <CR> with \r\n

hey ya,

OK, how do i replace <CR> with \r\n in CGI?

I thought that

Code:

---


$Description = "This is <CR> LINE ONE <CR>LINE 2<CR> LINE THREE";

$Description =~ s/<CR>/\r\n/g;

---

should do it? (Seams like not though)

NE 1?

[oh btw this code:]

Code:

---

      $input{'a_text'} = "Line\r\n1\r\n2\r\n3";
      $input{'a_text'} =~ s/\r\n/<CR>/g;

---

makes it output to:

Quote:

---

Line<CR>1<CR>2<CR>3

---

It works fine for me. Are you writing to a file? Perhaps Perl is translating the \r\n to the line breaker of your OS?
