Two options:
1. nl2br($posteddata) - This converts all the \r\n's to <br>'s so that
it comes out with the same carriage returns as the person who inputed it
gave it
It doesn't change \r\n to <br>, it only changes \n to <br />
2. Use HTML "<pre>" tabs to do the same thing.
I think that's the trickiest thing about using textarea to input then
regurgitate the data. Everything else should come out pretty much the
same.
