I have a web page with a form with a text area. I enter: foo bar PHP processes the POST and inserts the record into MySQL. The database field is text. I use PDO For testing I have removed any processing of the text area content. Now, no matter how many blank rows I have between foo and bar, in the database record, I always get a single newline character. I am using Firefox 7.0.1. Is this normal behaviour? I want to be able to enter more than 1 newline. Thanks Stephen
What is the wrap attribute set to on the textarea? I do not have a wrap attribute.
