New Line on PHP Header

Question

How to insert String with new line on a header with php? Below are the codes that I did,

$error = "Not enough balance to submit. \nBalance available : " . $balance;
header('location:info-page.php?error=' . $error);

When I submit, it will give this error:

Warning: Header may not contain more than a single header, new line detected.

---

UPDATE CODES

$error = urlencode("Not enough balance to submit. \nBalance available : ". $baki_cuti);
header('location:permohonan_maklumat_penyelia.php?id='.$pid.'&error='. $error));

Page : permohonan_maklumat_penyelia.php

<?php
if (isset($_GET['error'])) {
    echo '<script type="text/javascript">
        alert("' .urldecode($_GET['error']) . '");
    </script>';
}
?>

Error received:

permohonan_maklumat_penyelia.php?id=842&error=Not+enough+balance+to+submit.+
Balance+available+%3A+0:112 Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected token

You could use urlencode to encode whatever string you like to be appended to the URL. And the receiving script could use urldecode to decode that string.

eg:

$error = urlencode("Not enough balance to submit. \nBalance available : $balance");

Hope this helps :)
