Re: [PHP] Enter to BR

2001-06-27 Thread Richard Lynch

Some comments on these answers :-)

nl2br is the correct answer.

preg is like shooting a fly with a cannon, and str_replace would be right,
if nl2br wasn't right, which it is.

And every TEXTAREA tag on the planet should have WRAP=VIRTUAL in it.  In
fact, if *I* were in charge of HTML, there would be no other choice for
TEXTAREA wrapping.  The rest suck.  I *hate* sites that don't bother to do
this, so you're stuck with this stupid box that requires you to scroll like
crazy or send them badly-wrapped data.

Okay, I've spewed enough vile on TEXTAREA now :-)

See the nl2br() function.

In article 9h8ct3$n0t$[EMAIL PROTECTED] you write:
How can I get an Enter typed in a HTML textfield to be inerpreted as a BR or
a P tag?
Someone sugested I use the split() function, but I wouldn't know how...

You'll want to use nl2br(), then.

Re: [PHP] Enter to BR

2001-06-26 Thread Philip Olson


Three resources that should interest you greatly :

First, learn about the html wrap attribute.  Although the following url is
very long, it should be of use as it contains some examples (search google
for terms html textarea wrap for more info) :
 
  web-wise-wizard.com/html-tutorials/html-form-forms-textarea-wrap.html

Next, learn a little about linefeed / newline here :

  http://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/view.phtml/aid/901/

And from there, getting br's from \n's is a snap, check out :

  http://www.php.net/manual/function.nl2br.php

It's up to you from there :-)


regards,
Philip Olson

preg_replace(/\n/, BR\n, $var);
