The simplest way to do a print statement is as follows: <?php print "hello"; ?> Which prints out the following: hello Just put whatever you want to print in parentheses after the word "print", and follow it up with a semi-colon. Next, if you are printing multiple lines, be sure to use <br> at the end of your print statement, inside the parentheses, like this: <?php print "hello<br>"; print "how are you?<br>"; ?> Which will print: hello how are you? Without <br> in your print statemnt, the two lines would have been combined like the following: hellohow are you? And, we wouldn't want that. Next, if you want to print a blank line between the two lines, insert the following code between the two lines: print " <br>"; So that you're code will look like the following: <?php print "hello<br>"; print " <br>"; print "how are you?<br>"; ?> This will print the following: hello how are you? ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.print.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+38422 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+38422&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+38422&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
