Why am I getting spaces when there is none??!!
param_data=`sqlplus -S $USER/$PASSWRD@$SCHEMA << EOF
SET ECHO OFF NEWP 0 SPA 0 PAGES 0 FEED OFF HEAD OFF TRIMS ON
VARIABLE param_data VARCHAR2(1000);
WHENEVER SQLERROR EXIT SQL.SQLCODE ROLLBACK;
SELECT INTERFACE_ID || '|' || PARAM_FILE || '|' || SESSION_NAME || '|' || PARAM_NAME || '|' || PARAM_VALUE || '|' || TYPE || '\n' INTO :param_data
FROM CTL_INFA_PARAM
WHERE INTERFACE_ID='$INTRFC_ID' AND PARAM_FILE='$param_f';
EXIT;
EOF`
# write the parameter data in the temp parameter file
echo $param_data > $paramfile
The above script will connect to Oracle, select a a srtring and put's it into a file, the problem I'm facing is that some rows "strings" will have spaces "see red" in the output below, I noticed that this will happen only if the number of characters exceeds 80
The actual data does not have those spaces
I tried playing with those switches >> FEED OFF HEAD OFF TRIMS ON << but no go.
Please HELP.

LEARN ABOUT PHP
oci_set_action
OCI_SET_ACTION(3) OCI_SET_ACTION(3)
oci_set_action - Sets the action name
SYNOPSIS
bool oci_set_action (resource $connection, string $action_name)
DESCRIPTION
Sets the action name for Oracle tracing.
The action name is registered with the database when the next 'roundtrip' from PHP to the database occurs, typically when an SQL statement
is executed.
The action name can subsequently be queried from database administration views such as V$SESSION. It can be used for tracing and monitor-
ing such as with V$SQLAREA and DBMS_MONITOR.SERV_MOD_ACT_STAT_ENABLE.
The value may be retained across persistent connections.
PARAMETERS
o $connection
-An Oracle connection identifier, returned by oci_connect(3), oci_pconnect(3), or oci_new_connect(3).
o $action_name
- User chosen string up to 32 bytes long.
RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
Setting the action
<?php
$c = oci_connect('hr', 'welcome', 'localhost/XE');
// Record the action
oci_set_action($c, 'Friend Lookup');
// Code that causes a roundtrip, for example a query:
$s = oci_parse($c, 'select * from dual');
oci_execute($s);
oci_fetch_all($s, $res);
sleep(30);
?>
// While the script is running, the administrator can see the actions
// being performed:
sqlplus system/welcome
SQL> select action from v$session;
NOTES
Note
Oracle version requirement
This function is available when PHP is linked with Oracle Database libraries from version 10 g onwards.
Tip
Performance
With older versions of OCI8 or the Oracle Database, the client information can be set using the Oracle DBMS_APPLICATION_INFO pack-
age. This is less efficient than using oci_set_client_info(3).
Caution
Roundtrip Gotcha
Some but not all OCI8 functions cause roundtrips. Roundtrips to the database may not occur with queries when result caching is
enabled.
