No. There are plenty of times when you *want* to allow new lines in user input, even just sticking to the rather narrow field of form processors that send email, you often want to allow the user to enter multiple lines of text (in the message body). Using a prewritten, well-tested formmailer (such as NMS) is a good way to solve the problem. -- David Dorward http://dorward.me.uk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
