sending email

[jcombs_31]

I don't know why I haven't notice this problem before, but here it goes.  I have a textarea field that submits and does multiple things.  I check it with mysql_real_escape_string and then insert it into a database and then to an email.  When it gets entered into the database it I guess uses \r\n for line breaks.  When I send the email, instead of correctly formatting line breaks, it sends the email with \r\n all over the place.  How do I correctly go about this with the correct formatting?

i guess you could break the string using explode and then use a foreach loop to remove them and send emails individually?

Hope that makes sense (and that i have the right idea of what your question is).

I think the problem is that I've never really used mysql_real_escape_string when sending an email. I'm only doing this because I'm first entering into the db.  I think normally you simply get a \n for the new line, but mysql_real_escape_string is adding \r\n which the email doesn't handle as a new line.  I guess I have to stript the \r and then just leave the \n ??
