I don't think there's a PHP_EOL equivalent for tabs.

PHP_EOL was added to help prevent problems with \n vs \r\n (depending on your local system). Tabs don't have that problem so I doubt they added a predefined constant for tabs.

Try using single quote '\t' instead of "\t"

Code:

echo '\t\t\t\t';

what's wrong with \t? you can always define your own constant, call it TAB or something?
