You shouldn't need \r\n. \n should work just fine.
How are you 'inserting' the newlines? Single quoted string?
That's the thing, I'm not inserting \r\n at all. When filling in the
form, I hit "Enter" to go to the next line in the textarea. When I
pull the original data I do:
$textarea = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["textarea"], $connection);
if ($error) {
// somehow replace the \r\n that mysql_real_escape string put in
// then strip all the other slashes remaining: \' becomes '
$textarea = stripslashes($textarea);
// return to page
}
That clarify it a bit?
