Re: [PHP] text area question
This DOES correct the error. textarea is like pre element, white space and newlines are NOT ignored. Try it for yourself.

Granted, there mey be PHP output related issues to a multi-line whitespace within an echo or print operation but, so far as the actual HTML is concerned, white space is white space and it should all be ignored by the browser's rendering engine. The suggested correction DOES do a lot for programming style by eliminating the superfluous space, and the possibility that you may introduce errors by inserting other code in that area. D.
