    I want to use <br> tag to show part of data into next line. but unable to do it. can somebody help me to format data.

    My code is following -

    <body>
    <?php
    $con = mysql_connect("localhost","dwarkapr_archana","reset123");

    if (!$con)
    {
    die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
    }mysql_select_db("dwarkapr_property",$con);

    $m = $_POST['mode'];
    echo $m;
    if($m == "buy")
    {
    $sql="select * from dwarka_property where mode = 'buy'";
    }
    else
    {
    if($m == "rent")
    {
    $sql ="select * from dwarka_property where mode = 'rent'";
    }
    else
    {
    if($m=="pg")
    {
    $sql="select * from dwarka_property where mode = 'pg'";
    }
    }
    }
    //echo $sql;
    $result = mysql_query($sql);



    while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
    {

    echo $row['mode']." ";
    echo $row['type']." ";
    echo $row['city']." ";
    echo $row['budget']." ";
    echo $row['bedroom']." ";
    echo $row['properties_from'];
    <br>
    }mysql_close($con);
    ?>

    </body>

    just put echo "<br>"; Would get better results using a table though.

    Just add <br> if you are using HTML or <br /> if you are using XHTML at the end of your code like this:

    while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
    {
    echo $row['mode']." ";
    echo $row['type']." ";
    echo $row['city']." ";
    echo $row['budget']." ";
    echo $row['bedroom']." ";
    echo $row['properties_from']."<br />";
    }mysql_close($con);

    if you have a string using \n or \r then you can use echo nl2br($string);

    I know thats not your direct question, just adding it for reference ;D


    also you can just do one long string like:

    echo $str1."<br/>".$str2."<br/>".$str3;

    adding as many as you need too?
