[SOLVED] how do i output text from a database the same way it was entered

[gathos]

ok so i have a page to add inputs into a database like description, it's a textfield,

so i can type description like this:

 

blah

 

blah

blah blah blah

 

but when i echo it i get:

 

blah blah blah blah blah

 

how can i get it so that i get to display the same way i entered it?

ie:

 

blah

 

blah

blah blah blah

 

later days gathos

look into using nl2br() when you are outputting the database content to the browser.
