528765 2007-02-28 00:05:00 I'm stuck

What is happening is that when i get php to spit out my code it comes out like this (when I do a view source on the code)


<table><tr><td>blablabla</td></tr></table>

when what i want is for it to come out like



<table>
<tr>
<td>blablabla</td>
</tr>
</table>


Any help would be appreciated

528766 2007-02-28 00:29:00 I'm not too familar with PHP, but I remember reading at one stage that you can use escape characters to do stuff like that: eg. \t to tab (indent), \n to go to a new line.

So something in the echo statement like (can't guarantee that it works, but it's worth a try):

<table>\n\t<tr>\n\t\t<td>blablabla</td>\n\t</tr>\n</table>
