Hi All, I hope you can help. I am a total beginner at PHP but am eager to learn. I have two pages, very basic at the moment. http://www.navanwebdesign.com/in.php which is a web form sending data to a mySQL database. On page two http://www.navanwebdesign.com/out.php is a listing of all data entry from page 1. Now supposing I wanted to use this so I can update my web site through a web form I need to be able to do Paragraph returns <P> like so. QUESTION: What do I type in the TEXTAREA box to result in a <P> in the output (out.php) which comes from the database. Or do I have to check the input in the TEXTAREA box for <P> and replace with something else in the PHP code - If so how do I do this. I have tried several varieties of "\r\n" , &#13; in the TEXTAREA box, but as I am a beginner I am lost now and it is SOOOO frustrating. I would like to thank you for your help in this matter Seasons greetings all the Best Lisa Rubanowicz Ireland
