I think what you're running into is some confusion about newlines.

\n prints a newline in the output, yes. But since HTML ignores most whitespace (which includes \r and \n, you need to add a <br> tag as well.

one more question.... <br> makes a new line, and \n APPEARS to do nothing. do I even need to bother with the \n? (see, line 3 I didn't put the \n and still got the blank line, so is there any situation where the \n would NEED
to be there?)

I did the following:

<?php
print "line 1 br br nl <br><br>\n";
print "line 2 br nl <br>\nline 3 br <br>";
print "line 4 nl \n";
print "line 5 br <br>";
?>

------and the output was


line 1 br br nl

line 2 br nl
line 3 br
line 4 nl line 5 br
