note 22488 added to function.nl2br

I'm glad I found this!! I was strugling to find a way to get textarea strings inserted into a MySQL database to obey line breaks when displayed for public use....and this did it. I had already tried AddSlashes and several other things that didn't work. Quite simple actually.... $text = nl2br($text) ; echo $text ; does the trick.
