Description:
------------
I tried to use the escape syntax "\n" but php is not printing a newline. I also tried "\r" and "\t" but still no use.

The php version im using is:
PHP 5.1.2-1ubuntu2

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php


$friends_list = array('Sujith','Kalesh','Sijin','Ridhul');

foreach($friends_list as $friends)
{
echo "Hello, $friends\n";
}

?>


Expected result:
----------------
Hello, Sujith
Hello, Kalesh
Hello, Sijin
Hello, Ridhul 

Actual result:
--------------
Hello, Sujith Hello, Kalesh Hello, Sijin Hello, Ridhul

Newlines in HTML look like "<br/>".

#This is what i found in an ebook on php
#############################################
$person = array('Edison', 'Wankel', 'Crapper');

foreach ($person as $name) {
       echo "Hello, $name\n"; 
    } 
##############################################
#This is what it is suppossed to print
#Hello, Edison
#Hello, Wankel
#Hello, Crapper
#But this is what it prints
#Hello, EdisonHello, WankelHello Crapper

Yes, this is correct for _shell_.
But I bet the book presumes you already know what HTML is and how to add a newline there.
