Two options: 1. nl2br($posteddata) - This converts all the \r\n's to <br>'s so that it comes out with the same carriage returns as the person who inputed it gave it It doesn't change \r\n to <br>, it only changes \n to <br />
2. Use HTML "<pre>" tabs to do the same thing. I think that's the trickiest thing about using textarea to input then regurgitate the data. Everything else should come out pretty much the same. -TG-----Original Message----- From: Brent Clements [mailto:bclem@imaginative-enterprises.com] Sent: Saturday, September 11, 2004 7:02 PM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] Convert textarea post data from plain text to html using php..how?
