Subject: [PHP] How to handle multiple lines in PHP?
I have a textarea in one php page to allow user to leave message. How ever,
if the user input(three lines):
123
456
567
after I get it through some php scripts, and put it into database, later on,
I try to display it, but it becomes(only one line):
123 456 789
Does anyone know how to handle this? One idea is to convert the <END OF LINE
CHAR> to "<BR>" before putting it into the database, but how can we detect
the <END OF LINE CHAR> in PHP? Or is there any other ways?
Thank you very much in advance.
