Hi, i have an XML that has line breaks like this:

This is a text that has

line

breaks

im reading that xml in action script.. and trying to count how many linebreaks are in the text.

Here is my code.. it returns 0 , it should return 5 for the example.

function countBreaks(str:String) : Number
{
 var count:Number = 0;

 for (var i:Number = 0; i < str.length-1; i++)
 {
  if(str.charAt(i)+str.charAt(i+1) eq "\n")
             count++;
 }

 return count;

}

I appreciate any help :)
