New line in shell/PHP script

hi all,

I wrote a PHP script inside which am calling a shell script,

In shell script, i used echo to output some results.

In PHP script i just gave echo to the shell script output. But i couldn't enter the output in newline.

Please help me!

Thanks.

PHP script

Code:
<?php
$out=shell_exec(sh shelscript.sh)
echo $out
?>

In shelscript.sh

Code:
#!/bin/sh
...
.....

for ((  i=1;i <= $qcount;i++))
do

if [[ $st = "Success" ]]; then
echo $question is posted successfully
echo "\r"
elif [[ $st = "This question is already asked by the user" ]]; then
echo $question is not posted - Reason: Duplicate question
echo "\r"
else
echo $question is not posted
echo "\r"
fi
done

Here "\r" "\n" are not working as newline character.

ATF-SH(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 						 ATF-SH(1)

NAME
atf-sh [-s shell] -- interpreter for shell-based test programs SYNOPSIS
atf-sh script DESCRIPTION
atf-sh is an interpreter that runs the test program given in script after loading the atf-sh(3) library. atf-sh is not a real interpreter though: it is just a wrapper around the system-wide shell defined by ATF_SHELL. atf-sh executes the inter- preter, loads the atf-sh(3) library and then runs the script. You must consider atf-sh to be a POSIX shell by default and thus should not use any non-standard extensions. The following options are available: -s shell Specifies the shell to use instead of the value provided by ATF_SHELL. ENVIRONMENT
ATF_LIBEXECDIR Overrides the builtin directory where atf-sh is located. Should not be overridden other than for testing purposes. ATF_PKGDATADIR Overrides the builtin directory where libatf-sh.subr is located. Should not be overridden other than for testing purposes. ATF_SHELL Path to the system shell to be used in the generated scripts. Scripts must not rely on this variable being set to select a specific interpreter. EXAMPLES
Scripts using atf-sh(3) should start with: #! /usr/bin/env atf-sh Alternatively, if you want to explicitly choose a shell interpreter, you cannot rely on env(1) to find atf-sh. Instead, you have to hardcode the path to atf-sh in the script and then use the -s option afterwards as a single parameter: #! /path/to/bin/atf-sh -s/bin/bash ENVIRONMENT
ATF_SHELL Path to the system shell to be used in the generated scripts. SEE ALSO
atf-sh(3) BSD
