i want to make it so when you skip a line on a form in a textbox, it will save in the database as a skipped line, so when it displays the info on a page, it has the skipped line.

like if i did this:

text

text 2

it will show up like that instead of
texttext 2

thanks in advance.

when you save it into the database, use the function nl2br()

http://php.net/nl2br

thanks, but it didnt work... it won't return the skipped line that is in a textarea... i also tried all the other examples, none of them worked..

if u want to redit, then convert the br's back to bl. use br2nl()

http://php.net/br2nl

You need to save it as it is, then when displaying it, use nl2br();

Make sure you are stripping slashes, because nl2br() will not replace \/n
