Do a Line Break Even with the Pre Tag ?

[Glese]

I am intending to do a line-break in a specific division and I do manage it, though in the second division I am using pre tags, because I need the submitted data to be as is.

 

Here is an example:

 

        <!--  The Contribution Description -->
        <tr>
            <td colspan="3"><div class="break_word"><p><?php echo $contribution_description; ?></p></div></td>
        </tr>
        
        <!--  The Separation Line -->
        <tr>
            <td colspan="3"></td>
        </tr>
        
        <!--  The Contribution -->
        <tr>
            <td colspan="3"><div class="break_word"><pre><?php echo $contribution; ?></pre></div></td>
        </tr>
        
</table>

 

I am wondering, how can I manage to still have the line-break working as in the first division, and still keep the pre tags intact?

<?php echo nl2br($contribution_description); ?>

 

nl2br is what you are looking for.

It was actually meant for very long & continuous words. Those do not contain a new line as far as I know.

Oh gotcha, check out wordwrap.
