Loading php text into a text feild

I have been playing around with trying to load php text into a dynamic text that is set to text.html =true; and add the html text in the prop’s. But for some reason I can’t get it to look right it does not recognize the <br> 's ?

It works when I use a stupid flash component, set to html true. But I want to add my own look to the text box. I does not load right.

here is the PHP

 print 'Name: ' . $name . '<br /> Email:' . $email . '<br>Comments: </b>' . $comments . '<br>Date: ' . $time . '<br><br>';

here is how it looks in the text feild:
