I'm trying to a some data from a <textarea> form element to an mSQL
database. However, mSQL coughs shortly after the first newline.
So, I did nl2br() to put all the newlines to <br>'s and then tried the
following:
$description=str_replace("\n"," ",$description);
to get rid of the newlines. BUT! this string replace did absolutely
nothing and the newlines are still in there!
WHY?
Thanks
Louis
