Hi!
I am making an article manager and need some help. For example this forum. I type my post in the textarea and it automatically puts a
<br />
for every break. How can I do that?
Thanks
Tech

I had a look and I have no idea on what I need to do. Does any one think they could write up a littel something that will do it for me? Thanks!

\n. I tried that and it didn't work.
Thanks for any help!

All you need to do is run this function on the info from the text area before you want to display it and it will put a HTML line break next to all the new line characters. Just do something like:

Thanks.
This is what I used when processing the form:
$textarea = nl2br($textarea);
