erfg1 Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 When I made my form php powered, and you fill out a <TEXTAREA>, it does spaces, but the spaces dont show when displaying the mysql content onto a website. How would I make it so you can do <BR>'s instead of mysql's space downs. I assume it has something to do with str_replace.

Daniel0 Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 It do not do spaces, it actually makes line breaks, but linebreaks show up as spaces when the HTML is rendered and the <br> ('break line' or something like that) represents the line break. In order to convert the line breaks into HTML line breaks you would have to use the function hostfreak showed you or make one yourself, but making a function that already exists would be sort of stupid.
