You could look into the nl2br() function, which converts \n -style newlines (entered in <TEXTAREA>s) into HTML <br>s.

I have one field set as TEXT which holds descriptions of the events. When the information was entered into this field, in many cases, spaces between lines were entered ... however, when I pull the info from the database onto the webpage ... all my line formatting is erased and its just one continuous line of text. Is there a way to maintain my line formatting with spaces? ********************************************************************** 'The information included in this Email is of a confidential nature and is intended only for the addressee.
