Looks like a textarea or is a textarea. Two different things. If you
want it to look like a textarea, do something like:
<div style="border-style: solid; border-width: 1px;"><?php echo $text;?></div>
Although I prefer to use inset borders like:
<div style="border-style: inset;"><?php echo $text;?></div>
Play with css padding till you like it.
If it is a texarea, then do something like this:
echo '<textarea rows="10" cols="50">' . $original_text . '</textarea>';
You might need one or more of the following depending on what you're
displaying:
nl2br()
htmlentities()
htmlspecialchars()
