Also, check out the php site regarding the nl2br function and read through the user comments. Different OSes handle newlines different and nl2br does it 1 way. http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.nl2br.php And converting with nl2br supposedly takes up more CPU. Doing many nl2br conversions can run your site/program slow. In some cases, it's better to convert before injection since disk space is more abundent than CPU cycles. -- --Matthew Sims --<http://killermookie.org> -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
