I know of the $variable = mysql_real_escape_string($variable); It works just nicely to allow some of the wild cards to be saved to a mySQL table. Is there something like this for HTML that when you retrieve from a variable in the table an ENTER would be converted to <P> I am mainly talking about when the variable is defined as "longtext" and you are expecting the user to write a few sentences or where they may s/he may press ENTER to start a new line.
