Show line breaks from form input?

[clarkm]

What do I need to display input from a web form with the same line breaks the user entered?

Here on this site, messages have the same look as entered. Over on mine, you just get an unformatted wad of text.

Thank you.

Hi,
Try using the nl2br() function when you output the form result to the user.
i.e.
echo (nl2br($textarea));

Thank you so much, that did the trick.
