Hi Ron
Use nl2br()...its adds in <br /> tags. The other option is to use str_rplace and replace the characters with ones of your choice

I know of the
$variable = mysql_real_escape_string($variable);
It works just nicely to allow some of the wild cards to be saved to a mySQL table.
Is there something like this for HTML that when you retrieve from a variable
in the table an ENTER would be converted to <P>
I am mainly talking about when the variable is defined as "longtext" and you
are expecting the user to write a few sentences or where they may s/he may
press ENTER to start a new line.
