outputLineEndings
Type
property
Summary
The outputLineEndings property determines what line ending conversion to perform on text output.
Syntax
set the outputLineEndings to <lineEnding>
Description
Use the outputLineEndings property to determine what line ending conversion to perform on text output.
outputLineEndings is only available when running in CGI mode (Server).
The quoted literals must be used when setting this property - the property expects a name not a sequence of bytes to use as the line-ending. The reason behind this is two-fold - (1) it is more 'correct' from the point of view it is identifying the style of line-ending rather than the sequence of bytes to use (2) 'cr' and 'lf' are defined as the same numToChar(10) constant on all platforms.
Parameters

---|---|---|
lineEnding | enum | The type of line ending to use. |
