[PHP-DB] Display TEXT field value

2003-05-27 Thread John M. 
Hello,

I have a message box, where user can write more lines of comment. I store it
in a mysql db in a TEXT field.
But if I use echo command to display the value of the field I become the
value without linebreaks. How can I display the value in the same style as
input was?

Thanks!

Example:
User write:
hello

hello

In database is:
hello
hello

But display with echo I see:
hellohello
