[Resolved] Does PHP kill enter strokes?

[nitelight]

Hi all,

I have a problem with entries in a guestbook i'm creating..

i have a textarea that allow users to enter their comments in.
e.g: <textarea name="contentt" cols="75" rows="12" class="myform" warp="virtual"></textarea>

then, in the next page:
etc php codes... then:
$sql = "UPDATE $itcher SET rep='".$HTTP_POST_VARS[contentt]."',dt2='$trydate' WHERE ID='$pg'";

however, the multi-line $HTTP_POST_VARS[contentt] now becomes one line...

can anyone help me on this? how do i make it into multi-lines?

many thanks in advance,
will

$_POST['contentt'] = nl2br($_POST['contentt'];
