[SOLVED] Adding line breaks


pgrevents

Recommended Posts

What I am trying to do is basicly (hopefully) is i am creating a bio part for my website and it will be saving to a mysql database. What I want to recreate is how the user typed it in such as spaces and line breaks like <br/> etc. If the user hits enter and creates a new paragraph in essence i want the php to add the <br/>

 

I hope in reading this you understand what I am trying to get across cause I dont lol  :D

 

Does anyone have any ideas

 

cheers

sorry for the delay what a simple solution lol thanks... now how would one remove the line breaks from showing in the text area for example updating the entered text?

 

thanks again.

You should use nl2br when you display the text to screen. That way you wonthave to convert the <br /> tags with \n, which just over complicates things
