Cheers Lars. So, for example, if I wanted to display some plain text tabbed I'd use: echo "<pre>string1\tstring2\tstring3</pre>"; There's just one problem though - it formats the text differently to the rest of the page (I'm using CSS to control this). Any thoughts...?

Try adding 'white-space: pre;' to the CSS for that bit: <div style="white-space: pre;">

   <?php echo "This\tis\n\ta     test."; ?>

</div> See if adding that helps. Cheers, Torben
