Missing echo new lines 1

[gnubie]

<?php
/*
Windows XP-SP3, PHP 5, Firefox 3
Expected:
Line 1
Line 2

Got:
Line 1 Line 2

Why are newlines missing?
*/
echo "Line 1\n";
echo "Line 2\n";
?>

Hi

That depends on the possibly other scripts which call this and your web server's configuration.

But most probably because you not read the HTML specification.

You could :

[teal]<?php[/teal]
[gray]/*[/gray]
[gray]Deliver the content as text/plain[/gray]
[gray]*/[/gray]
[COLOR=darkgoldenrod]header[/color][teal]([/teal][green][i]'Content-type: text/plain'[/i][/green][teal]);[/teal]
[b]echo[/b] [green][i]"Line 1\n"[/i][/green][teal];[/teal]
[b]echo[/b] [green][i]"Line 2\n"[/i][/green][teal];[/teal]
[teal]?>[/teal]

Or :

[teal]<?php[/teal]
[gray]/*[/gray]
[gray]Format the content as text/html[/gray]
[gray]*/[/gray]
[b]echo[/b] [green][i]"Line 1<br>\n"[/i][/green][teal];[/teal]
[b]echo[/b] [green][i]"Line 2<br>\n"[/i][/green][teal];[/teal]
[teal]?>[/teal]

Feherke:

Thanks. That was exactly the problem.

If you wish it as HTML instead, you can use the

http://www.php.net/nl2br

echo nl2br("hi\n\n\how\n\are\n\you?");

I know it's off topic, but how do you colour code your "code" posts on this forum like you have done?

Can't see it in the help anywhere...

Hi

MJB3K, I suppose that question was for me.

I use an external tool, the GNU [tt]source-highlight[/tt], with TGML outlang.

Other members have other solutions, like customizing the [tt]Text::Highlight[/tt] [tt]perl[/tt] module or converting [tt]vim[/tt]'s output.

So far there is no syntax highlighting solution provided by the forum engine.

OK thanks =] they should incorperate that script into this forum as it would make code reading much more readable and clear!
