That's a keeper! Thanks much for sharing.

X-sender I hadn't thought of and I'll try it. As for \r\n vs \n, I'd
forgotten all about because I normally use (not successfully in this
case) <br />.

I've also been reading about PHP EOL; any opinions on that? Other than
knowing when to use it, it sounds like it might be handy if it's not
deprecated; haven't looked it up yet.

Thanks much,

Twayne`
