$temp = str_replace("\n","[break]",$inpText); //inpText is from textArea

and then u enter your temp to the sql..

when you want to split it up.. just use

$temp=explode("[break]",$inp4Sql); //hope i don't give wrong function

Split the data on a line break maybe? First thing that comes into my
head...

Subject: [PHP-WIN] Textarea and mysql

Hello,

Im currently having a bit of an issue with putting user info from a
textarea
into mysql db with php. With the textarea I need each new line to be a
separate entry into the db fields. So I guess the end result is making
the
textarea act like a regular text html form. The reason I am using
textarea is
because I want a user to paste in a long string of numbers

Ex:

11111111

22222222

33333333

...and so on

And each will end up in the same field just different entries.
Does anyone have any idea how I can accomplish this?

Thanks
