Well, for line breaks you should check out this function in the php manual. You may want to just bookmark the manual, I did the first time I saw it and use it at least daily.

thanks !

1)If you talk about HTML then you can use <br> tag

2) And in PHP you can use nl2br() to inserts a break. But remember don't use nl2br() if you want to save data in a database.

str_replace(" " , "&nbsp;", $str);
