Well, it does print them on multiple lines. You're probably looking
at it through a browser, though, which ignores newlines.
What you really need to do is capture the output of print_r, then use
nl2br before echo'ing it out. If you specify true for the second
argument to print_r the result will be returned rather than echo'd
out. So, something like this:
$a = array('foo' => 'bar', 'baz' => 'xyzzy');
echo nl2br(print_r($a, true));
