Re[2]: [PHP] HTML to mysql - from msql to html

2002-05-05 Thread Mantas Kriauciunas

Hey PHP General List,

ok i solwed the problems with line breaks but i didn't use
nl12br() function. i did like this:

$newz = str_replace(\n,br,$myrow[3]);

now i am having problems with spaces

text is:
---
bla bla bla  foo
---

and shows:
---
bla bla bla foo
---

what do i have to do to get all those spaces? as i understand(english
is weak) nl12br() is for breaks only. what about spaces?

  --
  foo bar
 
  more foo bar

  now i do msql_query(UPDATE.); and it sets into the
  database with just space. and when i take it out from database there
  is no empty line in the middle.

MC View the source of the page displaying the retrieved data. If the text 
MC displays on multiple lines there, then you just need to call nl2br() on 
MC the string to convert internal line breaks to HTML breaks.

MC If the text does not show line breaks in the source (or when you use the 
MC mysql CLI to query), then you need to change the parameters of the 
MC TEXTAREA. Probably textarea wrap=soft but I'm not 100% sure offhand.

replace the spaces with a non-breaking space:

I think you're going to have a good time with pre/pre. You could try
swapping nbsp; for each space but they're sometimes wider than normal
spaces and I suspect may have other weird side effects as well.

As a print designer in a former life, by the way, the thought of you 
trying to format something with spaces makes my skin crawl. But I'm trying 
to keep my cool.

Plain old HTML ignores white space.  You do understand this?  To include
what you want you'll need to substitute spaces for non-breaking spaces
(nbsp;) but I wouldn't advise it.  I'd be suggesting that if your
content requires such things that you reconsider how you are doing your
content.

CYA, Dave
