Hi
I'm new in php, I find the "\n" dosen't work in my machine
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>
<?php
echo "Hello World!";
?>
</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<H1>
First PHP page
</H1>
<?php
echo "Hello World!";
echo "\n";
echo "Hello World!";
?>
</BODY>
</HTML>
The result is
First PHP page
Hello World! Hello World!
any suggestion??

"\n" will not be recognised by your browser. Remember it expects to see
HTML and not DOS style new line markers.
Try
echo '<p>'; or
echo '<br>';
instead

Hi,
What the "\n" does is to throw a newline in your source code. So when
the page is displayed look at the source that has been generated you
will see the blank line. This can be useful to make the HTML source
readable. However to get a new line displayed in the browser your need
to use a <br> tag, or equivalent such as a <p> pair.

Right. If you are used to the "\n" style of newlines then you can also
use the function nl2br()

I am trying to create a function that works with two
arguments. the 1st needs to be a suername. The 2nd
needs to be an email address. Next, I have to use case
conversion functions to capitalize the first letter of
the username and convert the email add. to lowercase
characters and finaly check that it contains the @
sign. If I can't find the @ character, return false:
otherwise, I return an array containing the converted
arguments.
Here is my code (which I can't get to work):
<?php
$mail = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
$user = "patrick";
function usermail( $user, $mail ) {
global $user;
global $mail;
$user; = ucwords( $user ); // capitalizes the
//'p' in patrick
$mail; = strtolower( $mail ); // converts all
//of FOJOMO into lower case
if ( strstr( $mail ), "@" )) {
// searches for the '@' sign
user_array = explode("-", $user, $mail); // this
//function (explode) creates the array
} else {
print "Please enter a valid e-mail address"; //
default if test fails to //find the '@' sign
}
?>
