newline in ubuntu+firefox

Hi,
I have some troubles with a simple Php example. The following code returns a right output running via Common Line Interface (CLI), but the newlines (\n) are ignored when I try to view it with firefox. What could the reason be?
There's no problem when I put the php code between <pre></pre>, but how avoid this?
Thanks in advance.
Fran

<?php
$price = 3.95;
$tax_rate = 0.08;
$tax_amount = $price * $tax_rate;
$total_cost = $price + $tax_amount;

print 'The tax is '.$tax_amount;
print "\n"; // this prints a linebreak
print 'The total cost is '.$total_cost;
print "\n"; // this prints a linebreak
?>

 

Hi alma,

You can use this one.. It will work on all browser

<?php
$price = 3.95;
$tax_rate = 0.08;
$tax_amount = $price * $tax_rate;
$total_cost = $price + $tax_amount;

print 'The tax is '.$tax_amount;
print "<br>"; // this prints a linebreak
print 'The total cost is '.$total_cost;
print "<br>"; // this prints a linebreak
?>
