In addition to using \n instead of n\, you also should do: echo "<br><textarea name='aria' cols='50' rows='2'>", htmlentities($string), "</textarea>"; This will fix any problems with quotes, apostrophes, HTML, etc buried in $string. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
