hello,

 

I am trying to create a simple text editor that when used adds the text to a .txt file. At the moment im having trouble with the formatting of the text in terms of new lines. If i write in one long sentence the positioning of the text is fine however if i try to use paragraphs extra lines are added in and then the code gets confused and makes parts of the paragraphs titles, shown in bold. I think it may be because of the "\n"; part of my code but im not sure! Please can someone revise this so i can use paragraphs of text succesfully?

 

:Editor Code:

 

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body {
background-color: #6191c2;
}
-->
</style>
<SCRIPT language="Javascript">
function selectit(input){
document.formname.news.value+=input
}
</SCRIPT>


<link href="rotary.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
</head>

<body>
<label> 
<p><span class="rotary"><strong>Text Editor<br /></strong></span>  
  <?php

$prnt = "<img border=\"0\" src=\"images/bold.jpg\" width=\"25\" height=\"25\" alt=\"Bold\" onClick=\"selectit('<b>Text Here</b>')\"> ";

$prnt .= "<img border=\"0\" src=\"images/underline.jpg\" width=\"25\" height=\"25\" alt=\"Underline\" onClick=\"selectit('<you>Text Here</you>')\"> ";

$prnt .= "<img border=\"0\" src=\"images/link.jpg\" width=\"25\" height=\"25\" alt=\"Hyperlink\" onClick=\"selectit('<url>http://www.site.com>Site Name</url>')\"> ";
?>
  <?php
echo("$prnt");
?>
  <?php
if ($_POST['Submit12'] == "Submit")
{
$file_name = "home.txt";
$open_file = fopen($file_name, "a+");
$file_contents= $_POST['title'] . '|' . $_POST['news'] ."\n";
fwrite($open_file, $file_contents);
fclose($open_file);
echo "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;URL=homepagetry.php\">";
echo "Form data successfully written to file";
}
?>
</p>

<form id="formname" name="formname" method="post" action="">
  <p>
  <span class="rotary">Title:</span>
  <input type="text" name="title" />
  <p>
    <textarea name="news" cols="85" rows="15" id="news">
  </textarea>
</p>
  <p>
    <label>
    <input type="submit" name="Submit12" value="Submit" />
    </label>
</p>
</form>
</label>

 

:This is how i display the .txt file:

 

<body>
Testing Text Formatting..
<br />
<br />
<br />
  <?php
  
  $file = file("home.txt");
  foreach($file as $key => $val){
  $data[$key] = explode("|", $val);
  
  $title = $data[$key][0];
  $news = $data[$key][1];

  $outa = "<b><you>$title</you></b><br><br>"; 
  $outb = "$news<br>";

   print( $outa );
   print( $outb );

}
?>
</body>
</html>

 

Thanks in advance if anyone can help me with this one!
