That was my first thought but that wasn't it. To be sure, I urlencoded
the file and looked at it:
1%0A2%0A3%0A4%0A5%0A6%0A7%0A8%0A
No extra newlines that I could see.
FYI, if you run the program from the command line, you have to pipe the
output to a pager or you will not see the last (extra) line since there
is no newline character.
I'm using PHP 4.2.2 on Solaris sparc.
