quick question though (last one)

how do you make a new line in php?

it is \n in c and <br> in html.

thanks

<?
print("la la la");
?>
<br>
<?
print("la la la");
?>

Doesn't matter, you're still gonna see it and good coding practices should be exercised at all times....

remember you are using php to print text. this text is going to be html.

\n will only display if you view source. \n is a regular line feed .. html does not recognize line feeds, however if you view source, you will notice that it does skip a line.

if you want your line break to show up in html, then it is <br>

i use line feeds to nicely format my html .. but if you want the line break to show up in html, then you must print a <br>.

<br /> is...wierd....

at least now I know to use it.
