Terry,
Thanks for the tip on the nl2br function. That function proved to be
very helpful when displaying data in a HTML table.
I noticed the \n is ok when sending text to a form with multiline input
boxes.
Thanks,
Blaine

Any text field that has the possibility of getting quotes should be
handled by
$textfield = addslashes($textfield);
prior to insert.
Then on displaying, use
$textfield = stripslashes($textfield);
If it is a big text (including paragraphs) I use
$textfield = nl2br(stripslashes($textfield));
