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.

************************
What is missing is the markup interpreted by the browser.  (Check the source
after the script is processed).  Something like this perhaps?

<?
$mytext = "<p style='margin:0'>what up doc</p>";
$mytext .= chr(10) . "<p style='margin:0'>not much</p>";
?>
<p><?=$mytext;?></p>

The source of the document received from the server as text/html reads

<p style='margin:0'>what up doc</p>
<p style='margin:0'>not much</p>

and this is interpreted and displayed by the browser as

what up doc

not much
