<?php		echo "Some String \n"
		echo "Some more String \n"
					?>
I expected this output:

Some String
Some more String

But I'm getting this output:

Some StringSome more String

No new line is being forced. The problem also occurs with PRINT
 as well as ECHO.

are you looking at it in a browser? if so, look at the source of the page. the newline is there. if not, reopen the report.

I also do not get a new line using this:
<?php
     echo('<BR>Number of \r\nrecords f\rou\nnd: '.$counter);
?>

Yes, I am looking at this in a browser.  Is there maybe a configuration setting not allowing this?

Read the documentation, http://php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php

Not a bug.
Please don't comment on old and closed bugs, create a new one - after doublechecking the manual

To print a newline in the browser ad a <p> tag to create a new paragraph.  Like 
this:   

echo ("<p>The sql is: ".$sql);

You can close it too if you like....  echo("</p>");
