for the tabs?
use Regular Expressions to do all that kind of jobs if you really need it:
$multiplier = 4;
$text = ereg_replace("\t", str_replace(' ', $multiplier), $text)
Or simply use our good-old <PRE> tag.

Hy there everyone on the board 8), just a new listviewer droppign in.
In case of displaying \n that are stored in a variable or com from a DB or
inptu field you can also use nl2br($var) which automatically converts those
linebreaks to <br> and so get displayed correctly. Though that will not work
for the tabs.
