So you can't say print('what up doc $mycarriagereturnvariable'); and expect it to output the value of $mycarriagereturnvariable. Next, you *can* use this construct within *double* quotes. Finally, there are special characters - "Escaped characters" you can use with PHP to generate a carriage return :
These include :
\t : Tab character \r : Carriage return character \n : Newline character
So your string should be :
print("what up doc\r\n");
Hope that helps Neil.

For example, say I have a variable $mytext = 'what up doc'. Now I want to add the text 'not much' to the end of this variable. But I want to place a return or linefeed after the original text so when I echo $mytext it looks like:
what up doc not much
I tried: $mytext = 'what up doc'; $mytext .= chr(10) . 'not much'; I also tried chr(13)
10 is linefeed and 13 is carriage return.
Thanks for your previous help as well. Doug
