Not really sure what you are asking.  Do you want to remove the line breaks
from the textarea entry?  Use str_replace("\n","",$user_input);
str_replace("\r","",$user_input); to remove them.

If you want the user to be able to use the enter key to format the
description, you will have to replace "\n" with <BR> when you display it
back.  HTML ingores whitespace, so "\n" accomplishes nothing.
