I've installed Apache 2.0.59 and PHP 5.2. It's functionning, but all strings outputed with Echo shows on the same line, even if I include a "\n" at then end of string. Example: <?php Echo "string1"; Echo "string2"; ?> results in: string1string2 in any browser. The same result with the following modification: <?php Echo "string1\n"; Echo "string2"; ?>

That will work using the CLI version of php. Using the Apache module version of php, you need to echo something like this: <?php echo "some text line 1<br />"; echo "some text line 2<br />"; ?> Wherever you see php examples written for the CLI version of php using \n, you will need to use <br /> instead, to make new lines appear in the browser.
