Hi,
I have a <textarea> when submitted creates a new form with the textarea
data in a hidden field:
<input name="DPRnarration" type="text" hidden form="DPRform" value="Enter
call
narration here.">
But when this new form gets resubmitted, the \n get stripped?
<input name="DPRnarration" type="text" hidden form="DPRform" value="Enter
callnarration here.">
I don't get it.
There is nothing in my code that is stripping the \n?
<input name="DPRnarration" type="text" hidden form="DPRform" value="<?php
echo stripslashes($_POST["**DPRnarration"]);?>">
Do I need to put it in another textarea and declare it hidden?
An input with type=text is used for single lines, so yes, newlines get
stripped.
Either use a textarea with style="display: none", or store the data in a
session instead.

Actually - an <input type=text> may be intended for single lines, but my
test shows that it does not drop the \ all by itself.
And actually, the poster's question is very difficult to understand,
simply because I do believe he doesn't know anything about html or php.
Probably building something from examples he has seen.
1 - he doesn't show a <textarea> tag in his examples
2 - his sample of his code is such a small fragment we can't tell WHAT
he is doing.
Most likely the problem is his use of stripslashes in that last code
line he provided. I wonder if he knows what that does?
