Re: note 18273 added to language.variables

See http://www.php.net/manual/en/functions.arguments.php#functions.arguments.default for creating default values for parameters (which create those parameters optional when calling the function). \n is the newline character. If you want the literal charater '\n' to display, use \\n, or use \n within single quotes. The manual notes are not a place to ask questions, please see http://www.php.net/support.php for places to ask questions.
