ID: 37404 Updated by: tony2001@php.net Reported By: werty37 at gmail dot com Status: Bogus Bug Type: Output Control Operating System: Ubuntu Dapper Drake Beta PHP Version: 5.1.5CVS New Comment: Yes, this is correct for _shell_. But I bet the book presumes you already know what HTML is and how to add a newline there.
