Bug #16213 Updated: Ignores Escape Codes

ID: 16213 Updated by: rodif_bl@php.net Reported By: ht_regz@shaw.ca Status: Bogus Bug Type: Output Control Operating System: Windows XP Pro PHP Version: 4.1.1 New Comment: I see what you are doing.. It's still not a bug... You are viewing this in a web browser correct? You are printing hard returns not <br>'s echo "Line 1<br>"; echo "Line 2<br>"; the other way if you "view source" you would see the Lines on different lines... So this bug is still bogus. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-21 17:36:10] rasmus@php.net It is a support question because it is an HTML 101 question that most people new to this stuff asks at some point. Newlines mean nothing in HTML unless you are inside a <pre> </pre> block. Do a "view source" and you will see your newlines. If you want an actual newline in the HTML rendering you need to output <br /> This is not, has never been, and will never be a PHP bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-21 17:33:42] ht_regz@shaw.ca ok I apologize for that... the internet connection here at work has been intermittant and I wanted to get it up as fast as possible... the <? echo "Line 1"; echo "Line 2"; ?> should of shown <? echo "Line 1\n"; echo "Line 2\n"; ?> and it still prints Line 1Line 2 as for mfisher@php.net I don't see how this is a support question.. it's a bug somewhere between php & apache for win, because the same page of code works fine when ran on php & apache in Mandrake. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-21 17:07:41] rodif_bl@php.net This functionality work fine.. your example echo "Line 1"; echo "Line 2"; should print Line 1Line 2 if you want to do something like this echo "Line 1\nLine 2\n"; or echo "Line 1 Line2 "; - Brad ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-21 17:07:20] mfischer@php.net The bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions.

The newlines will be output as well"; echo "This spans\nmultiple lines. The newlines will be\noutput as well."; simply does not work... When escape codes are entered it shows up exactly as written minus the escape codes. if i were to <? echo "Line 1"; echo "Line 2"; ?> the output on the page would be Line 1Line 2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=16213&edit=1
