Try this:
<?php
$textfield = nl2br($textfield);
echo $textfield;
?>
For more info, have a look at http://www.php.net/nl2br.

Subject: RE: [PHP] textarea -- what happens to my new lines
Thanks for the idea, it didn't work, let me just explain a bit further!
this is a simple version of the code
input.htm::
<form name="form" method="get" action="show.php">
<textarea name="textfield" cols="45" rows="5" wrap="HARD"></textarea>
<p>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
</form>
show.php::
<?php
echo $textfield;
?>
When I put in :
1
2
3
4
I get:
1 2 3 4
how do I fix this ( want it to appear like it was typed!)?
Regards
Lars Stampe
