Textarea

[adam84]

If I type in

a

b

c

d

in my text area (each letter is on a new line, new line = enter)

When I process the data using php, I want to change all the '\n' to <br />. For some reason it is not working correct.

 

I've tried two different approaches

approach 1

$text = nl2br($text);

 

approach 2

$newLine = array( '\r\n', '\n', '\r' );
$text = str_replace( $newLine, "<br />", $text);

$text = $_POST['textarea'];
$text = nl2br($text);
