line breaks in PHP sent e-mail

[hoax]

I am trying to have a script send form data via e-mail yet I can't get the line breaks to work at all. My messages come to my inbox all in one line with the "/n" still in them. I can't ge this code to work. Any help you could give would be great.

Here is the section causing problems...

    $to = "[e-mail]";
    $subject = "REMOVED";
    $emailf = "From: [email][e-mail][/email]\nX-Mailer: SupaMail\n";

$body = 'This From Was Sent To You Via A Robot!'."\n"."Please Do Not Reply To This Message\n\n\n".$First_Name." ".$Last_Name." sent in info!"."\nThe user claims this form was submitted: ".$Todays_Date." (for an accurate date check the date on this very e-mail message)"."\n\n\nBelow is all the contact info the form collected\n".$Contact_Person." (".$Contact_Phone.")\n".$Organization." \n".$Address."\n\nRequested Date For Demo: ".$Date_For_Demo."\nEvent Type: ".$Event_Type."\nHow Did You Hear About Us: ".$How_Did_You_Hear_About_Us."\nRefereed By: ".$Refereed_By"\n\nWhy Should We Select You?\n".$Why_Should_We_Select_You."\n\n\n-----------------------------------------\nSent via SupaMail ";

mail($to, $subject, $body, $emailf);

😕 🙂

well...the data should be base64 encoded...

i would try this:

$body = "This From Was Sent To You Via A Robot!\nPlease Do Not Reply To This Message\n\n\n$First_Name $Last_Name. sent in info!\nThe user claims this form was submitted: $Todays_Date. (for an accurate date check the date on this very e-mail message)\n\n\nBelow is all the contact info the form collected\n$Contact_Person ($Contact_Phone)\n$Organization\n$Address\n\nRequested Date For Demo: $Date_For_Demo\nEvent Type: $Event_Type\nHow Did You Hear About Us: $How_Did_You_Hear_About_Us\nRefereed By: $Refereed_By\n\nWhy Should We Select You?\n$Why_Should_We_Select_You\n\n\n-----------------------------------------\nSent via SupaMail";

no need to base64 encode since you dont have multipart data like an attachment.
\n is just an escaped character so you can include it in normal echo'es without having to concatenate or do anything like that.
echo "Hello\nThere";
or
$var = "hello\nthere";

is perfectly fine.
