Escape sequences  and variables too  work inside double quoted and heredoc strings  So change your code to   echo   lt p gt      unit1     lt  p gt  n     PS  One clarification  single quotes strings do accept two escape sequences        when you want to use single quote inside single quoted strings    when you want to use backslash literally

n must be in double quotes   echo  hello nworld     Output  hello world     A nice way around this is to use PHP as a more of a templating language   lt p gt      Hello  lt span gt  lt  php echo  world   gt  lt  span gt   lt  p gt    Output   lt p gt      Hello  lt span gt Planet Earth lt  span gt   lt  p gt    Notice  all newlines are kept in tact

PHP only interprets escaped characters  with the exception of the escaped backslash    and the escaped single quote     when in double quotes      This works  results in a newline      n    This does not result in a newline     n
