You skipped a step here, between "write it to my database" and
"appear on a different line".

I assume that you insert to the database, then pull it out and
display it as HTML.  '\n' doesn't cause a line-break in HTML.

You can either use "<br>" instead of "\n" before putting it in
the database (less portable), or look at the nl2br() function
(I would prefer this option, personally).
