Re: print_r question

About the simplest way to accomplish what you want is : <pre> <?php print_r($var) ?> </pre> \newlines don't show up in browser but will in the source, check your html source and see how pretty it is (full of newlines). Here's an example : $string = "a\nb\nc\n"; print $string; (newlines in source) print nl2br($string); (newlines and <br>'s in source) Regarding print_r(), use <pre> as suggested above or you _could_ do other things but we'll worry about later :) Regards, Philip On Thu, 23 Aug 2001, james wrote: > When I print an array out with print_r (php 4.06 on IIS 4.0) it does not > print newlines even if newlines are embedded in the array element.
