I create a string from other strings: $string = $string1."\n".$string2."\n".$string3."\n".$string4."\n".$string5; and then store it in DB. But, I can't figure out how to split them back? Tried: $string_back = explode('\n', $string); $string_back = explode('<br>', $string); $string_back = explode('<br />', $string); Anu help? Also, is there actially better way to do this then adding \n between strings? (e.g. store form fields name, address, city, state, zip, phone, email as a one string in db and later pull them from DB and split them back?) Thanks for any help! -afan use "\n" instead of '\n'. Special characters and variables between single quotes aren't replaced with their ACTUAL meanings, while they are when the text is between DOUBLE quotes. So, using "\n" you get a NewLine character; using '\n' you will get the raw text '\n' (no quotes)
