So, you're saying that this will output the literal string:
This spans\nmultiple lines. The newlines will be\noutput as well.
Is the bit you posted above a direct cut-and-paste from your script? If
not, check that you are in fact using double quotes and not single.

Re: newline "\n&quo t; not working.
HTML ignores excess whitespace including newlines. Are you viewing the
page in the browser or viewing the source for the page? If you are
viewing the output in the browser window itself, is the text contained
in a PRE tag?

Resource id #2 This spans multiple lines. The newlines will be output as

Re: newline "\n&quo t; not working.
All you need to do is statement separator (the period (.)). Then put
your code in two statements such as this.
Line #5 is [echo "$conn\n";]
Line #5 needs to be corrected to [echo $conn."\n";]
LIne #7 is [echo "This spans\nmultiple lines. The newlines will
be\noutput as well."; ]
Line #7 needs to be
[echo "This spans"."\n"."mu ltiple lines. The newlines will
be"."\n"."outpu t as wee.";]

Steve,
No, you see Robert's post. He is correct. Check the page source.

If you mean it outputs this in your browser (I don't see a shebang line,
so I assume you're not running this on the command line), then Robert
gave you the answer. A newline is equivalent to a space, in HTML.

You could probably do one of the following:
echo "Line 1<br>Line2";
OR
echo "<pre>Line 1\nLine2</pre>";

Sorry, Huck. It will all come out in one line. Try it yourself in an HTML page.

stevek pass it through nl2br...
<?php
echo nl2br("This spans\multiple lines. The newlines will be\noutput as

Re: newline "\n&quo t; not working.
Yea, so my previous post was wrong. For some reason I was thinking
that stevek was referring to the output inside the source code to make
go to a new line. My mistake. Thank you for the correction, though.
