[SOLVED] Question on \n command

[graham23s]

Hi Guys,

 

i was looking through the source code of a few scripts i downloaded, to learn from the code.i can now read it a lot better than i used to but 1 thing i'm not sure on:

 

            else
                print("yes");
            print("</td>\n");

 

after every <table><tr> or <td> they do a \n, for a new line, but is there any reason why you would need to do a  \n after each table tag?

 

thanks for any info

Not particularly - it just makes the generated HTML more readable.

Basically when you view the source of that document there will be a line break at each "\n", but it only affects the source code.

ah so it's more a preference than a necessity , thanks guys
