textarea problem

[cleary1981]

Hi,

 

I am using several textareas in my application. The content is being stored in a mysql database. The problem I am having is that I want the output data to be exactly the same as the input. I have tried using the wrap attribute but that hasnt worked.

 

For example When I write:

 

xyz

abc

 

it comes out as :

 

xyz abc

 

on the same line.

I'd be real interested in this solution too.  Without writing or implementing a WYSIWYG input everything is kind of simplified.  I wonder if making the field Binary would fix this.  However, even if it did, the DB would look pretty ugly.
