It sounds like you are using nl2br to all breaks _before_ you insert your data into a table. Don't do this, for this very reason. Only use nl2br _after_ you extract the data to format it for display in a browser; you don't need to use nl2br to display the data in a <TEXTAREA> of course. -- David Robley Temporary Kiwi!
