\n, or just a plain line break, should work.
<?php
echo '<textarea>Hello,
My favorite color is blue.
Signed,
Me!';
?>
Should work.

Is \n included literally because you're using single quotes for the variable?
$textdata = 'This is a test\nThis is the second line';
vs...
$textarea = "This is a test\nThis is the second line";
I would guess a lot of the pages you find are talking about what to do with
the text after submitting through the textarea, not re-displaying with
proper breaks when loading a page containing a text area that should have
data.

my client ask me about this problem 2 weeks ago. he want the text to
automatically
go to new line after user type until the end of the line. The only possible
solutions so
far is using wrap='hard' or wrap='soft'
eg: <textarea cols=10 rows=10 wrap=hard>
but wrap only work on IE & Netscape browser. Not working in firefox.
i guess i want to use javascript to do the text formatting. trigger the
javascript event
every time the user using the onchange event (i never try)..
i is quite complicated & i dont have much time working on it.
so i decided to tell him, it cannot be done :)

Here's one:
$res = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM pages ORDER BY rank');
You should probably be a little more specific! Do you mean a script that
can access Google's webservices to find out the pagerank for a given URL?

Sure, a few years ago I spent a considerable amount of time finding
the code and here it is:
http://www.webbytedd.com/a/page-rank/index.php
It used to work, but now it doesn't.
Anyone care to tell me why it doesn't work anymore and how to fix it?
Cheers,
tedd

Hi,
This is probably simple to answer for most of ya'll, but...
preg_replace_callback($f, 'mah_processTags', $text);
Besides the matches, how would I pass function args/param to
mah_processTags()?
For example, I would like to do something like this:
preg_replace_callback($f, 'mah_processTags($arg1)', $text);
function mah_processTags($matches, $arg1) { ... }
Is this even possible? I just want to pass-in $arg1 along with the
matches. :)
Possible?
Many thanks in advance!!!
Cheers,
Micky

So far I've seen two approaches to this:
1. LaTeX to PDF
2. Openoffice to PDF.
We use method #2.

pdflib from PECL

Not pear so not pure PHP.
A pure PHP alternative is:

Hey,
As the subject says really. Last thing it has seems to be "PEAR on a
Shared Host" dated the start of the 27th.
