going to put newline in string

[odero]

hello pals
I'm storing text in the database that will be used as the body of an email sent with the mail() function.
How do I store newlines in middle of the text so that the person viewing the e-mail will see the text on a new line?

\n is the newline escape character
$string = "a\nb"; will show a and b on two different lines -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

And IIRC you will need to use "\r\n" at the end of your headers as opposed to "\n". Just for further explanation, "\n" is a line feed and "\r" is a carriage return -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --
