Hangwire Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Hi all, I have a question. How do I put a new line in a script? I've tried everything. <?php $con = mysql_connect("localhost","*","*"); if (!$con) { die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); } mysql_select_db("my_db", $con); $sql="SELECT * FROM People WHERE FirstName='Borko' AND LastName='Borkov'"; if (!mysql_query($sql,$con)) { die('Error: ' . mysql_error()); } echo "Found!"; echo($sql); mysql_close($con) ?> I wrapped it in <html> and so on, <br /> doesn't work. Saved it in html, <br /> still doesn't work and the script doesn't execute. The output I get right now is Found!SELECT * FROM People WHERE FirstName='Borko' AND LastName='Borkov' I want it to display Found! SELECT * FROM People WHERE FirstName='Borko' AND LastName='Borkov' And another question - how can I see what the sql variable is searching for from the browser? For now, as you have seen, I just use the echo($sql) but it doesn't quite cut it - is there a way to see just FirstName and LastName without the whole code? I tried echo($sql [FirstName] [LastName], as you've already guessed it didn't work... A hint would also be greatly appreciated! Any help on these two issues? :-\ Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/213399-new-line-in-scripts-another-simple-question/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikachu2000 Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 There is no reason I can think of that this shouldn't work: echo "Found!<br />$sql"; Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/213399-new-line-in-scripts-another-simple-question/#findComment-1111021 Share on other sites More sharing options...
