Re: [PHP] wordwrap
There no tag, but a function wordwrap(). http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.wordwrap.php You need to separate vars into message and comments also. Programming in any language w/o reading manual/reference is just a waste of time. IMO.

HTML treats bunches of whitespace as one space. Look at the source of the page; you'll see that it's doing what it should. If you want your HTML to appear wordwrapped, modify your PHP to use the 'nl2br()' function: This will convert all newlines to tags, and your HTML output will look just like your text output.

Re: [PHP] wordwrap not working
This may be a nl2br() problem. If you are setting \n as your newline character, it probably needs to be if your just echoing it. Depending on where it ultimately gets displayed, you'll want one or the other. For example, sending an email message you want \n. Steven J.
