[PHP] /n not working
Hi there. I got a question from someone why the following (from the manual) will not bring the desired output: ?php /* if I open the following txt file and in explorer*/ $text = The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.; $newtext = wordwrap($text, 20); echo $newtext\n; /*my output is the following The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog. */ /*this should however have the following output according to the php manual The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog. */ ? Is this a php.ini setting?

Re: [PHP] /n not working
I must suggest to just add like header(Content-Type: text/plain); // Don't use HTML To the top of examples like that... -- // DvDmanDT MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Curt Zirzow [EMAIL PROTECTED] skrev i meddelandet news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * Thus wrote John W.

[PHP] \n not working
I am just learning PHP. I have it installed on my Win 2000 IIS to practice, and after I save PHP files in my wwwroot folder, I go ahead and access my practice pages through IE via my full (universal) server address. However, the \n code (to start a new line) never works. Any ideas?

Re: [PHP] \n not working
Browsers don't parse \n as a new line, try using br which will make a new line Andrew - Original Message - From: alpherjo [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, September 16, 2001 9:51 PM Subject: [PHP] \n not working I am just learning PHP.
