Why does echo("help\n") not create a newline?

echo("help\n"); will echo a newline, but it won't show up as the 
newlines are ignored by html. Try writing the string to a file, or echo
("A\nB"); then view source, you'll see
A
B
If you want to add a new line after a line, use something like:
echo "help<br>";
which will send a html line break, which will result in a new line.
