Line Break Problem

Hi, I have a question regarding using line breaks in PHP. I have the code something like: echo "1" . "\t " . $x . "\t" . $y . "\r\n"; When I run the code, it looks like a whole blob of text, but when I use "View Source", the line breaks are formatted then correctly. Anyone can please tell me if this is what this is supposed to be? If so, how can I get the user to see the line break as they are, do I have to use <br>? Thanks for your help.
