look this is the code im using to upload the data [code]<?php if($_POST['Submit']){ include("sql.php"); $name = $_POST['name']; $description = $_POST['description']; $description = str_replace(" ","<br>","$description"); $ok = mysql_query("INSERT INTO `table` ( `id` , `name` , `description`) VALUES ( 'NULL', '$name', '$description' );");[/code] so when someone use "Enter", it transform that "Enter" into a <BR> now i want to add an edit form, so i can edit de description, ok? but when i call the form and the data it shows me the "Enter" and the <BR> and i want to get rid of the <BR> cuze if i dont and i submit the data, now it multiply the <BR> and insted one i got <BR><BR> :| so i did [code] <? $description = str_replace("<br>"," ","$description"); ?> <td align="right">Description:</td> <td align="left"><textarea name="description" cols="60" rows="10" class="box" id="description"><?=$description;?></textarea></td>[/code] but that dont works :|, now i dont know what to do :P im learning php. maybe its a silly question, but i cant find the answer. thank you
