I am creating a content management page that uses a textarea box to enter a
chunk of text which then is sent into the database into a text-type field.
I am finding that when the data is retrieved to be shown in the browser that
the line feeds are lost. I don't want users to have to know HTML to put
tags in themselves. What's the best way to handle this?
Can I read from the database and insert br's and p's to be put into the
displayed HTML? Or, instead, is there a way to put the br's and p's
immediately into the database when the record is inserted? How can I do
this? How would the string be manipulated?
Thanks for your help,
-Casey
