Try this: http://photomatt.net/scripts/autop This is a "smart" function that wraps content with <p> tags. It will translate 1 line break into a <br /> and two new lines translates as a new paragraph. There's also an extended version that smartly handles block level elements. --Nicole --------------------------- Nicole Swan Web Programming Specialist Carroll College CCIT (406)447-4310 -----Original Message----- From: michael [mailto:michael@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Sunday, August 29, 2004 11:34 PM To: php-db@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: end of line Hi. I'm trying to find a simple way to allow a client to update a "notes" page on her site whenever she wants. I created a form which allows her to save a few paragraphs to a mysql table. What I want to do, though, is write her paragraphs to an html page so others can see her words. Is there a way to replace newlines with <p> tags, so that her carriage returns show up as separate paragraphs when I write it to html? Also, she uses a mac - doesn't mac register newlines and carriage returns different than windows or unix? Thanks in advance. -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
