Rule #1.
Never, ever, ever, alter the user's input, EXCEPT for sanitizing/filtering.
Specifically, do NOT add <br /> tags in place of newlines.
Store the newlines.
100% I agree. Thats called the act of defensive programming. We have no
right over altering user input but yes we have right to display what we want
user see on the site.
Thanks,
