Re: \n being output as a space

Don't forget that you are outputting HTML, not text. A \n is a carriage return, and if you looked at the source code, there would be a line break there, but carriage generally don't have any effect when it comes to HTML code, which requires a <br> for a line break, or <p> for a space between the lines.

I am having a problem with the following code:

                echo "\nUploaded $upload_name to ftp.godzone.net.nz as

$newfilename"; The output does not appear on a newline, instead there is a space between this line and the previous line, all output on the same line. In other words it looks like the \n was rendered as a space character. User agent is IE5.01, Windows 95.
