simonsays Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 The problem is following. I have a column in MySQL of TEXT type. I put some text into it and the text consists of 2 paragrahs...However, when I try to output a text with php-script the paragraphs are gone and text is output as a single paragrahp. Using html-tag <br> is not a good idea, as I use (strip_tags) function. Is there any solution?Example (I input and would like to see as an output):Sun is shining.The weather is sweet.Actually outputs:Sun is shining. The weather is sweet.

wildteen88 Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Look into to using the nl2br function. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/21394-simple-text-formatting-and-mysql/#findComment-95293 Share on other sites More sharing options...
samshel Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Even if u use strip_tags function you can allow only [nobbc]<br>[/nobbc] or <p> tags.
