masgas Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 Hi!I'm working on a forum. And in the message writing area, when I hit "enter" to place a line break or two, it appears correctly in the text box. However, when I print the messages with php this line break doesn't show...any ideas why?thank you for your help.
