[Resolved] Automatically inserting <BR> tags into a blob field when the user inserts line brea

[HairyArse]

Hi,

I have a user form which contains a large text area which when submitted stores the text written in the text area as a blob field within my database.

I have noticed that the only to save line breaks is if the user enters <br> tags after every line.

How can I solve this problem as I don't want the user to have to do this.

you call:

$myfield=nl2br($myfield);

before inserting into the database.

or, if you need to edit later and don't want <br> to keep multiplying use this:

$myfield=preg_replace('/[\r\n]+/ms','<br>',$myfield);

Thank you again Alexu', that's twice today you've helped me out.
