Two options: 1. nl2br($posteddata) - This converts all the \r\n's to <br>'s so that it comes out with the same carriage returns as the person who inputed it gave it
2. Use HTML "<pre>" tabs to do the same thing. I think that's the trickiest thing about using textarea to input then regurgitate the data. Everything else should come out pretty much the same. -TG > -----Original Message----- > From: Brent Clements [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Saturday, September 11, 2004 7:02 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [PHP] Convert textarea post data from plain text to > html using php..how? > > > Do you guys happen to have an easy easy to do this? > > I need to convert plain text submitted via a textarea form > field to html formatted text. > > Is there a way to do this with php? > > Thanks, > Brent > -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
