noobstar Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Hi, im tring to get this to work however, im unsure how to. When you type lets say this into a textarea box and save it into a variable: This is a test 1 2 3 And when you display it through echo it will just show this in a straight line i.e. This is a test 1 2 3. My question is is there a way to retain the breaks inbetween just the way its written in the textarea box ? Thanks again Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/71320-solved-display-text-with-breaks/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

sKunKbad Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 My pleasure. Figuring out other peoples problems with php is like a game I play when I'm bored. Keeps me fresh with the php knowledge.
