I recently had the same problem. I found my solution here
http://phpbuilder.com/columns/ying20000718.php3?page=1
download and unzip ying20000718.zip
You include outputlib.php at the beginning of your php program and wrap
$message
like this
print_output($message)
it works great!!

Subject: [PHP-WIN] Get the contents of the textarea "as is"
For example, if someone puts the following into a textbox..
"Hi my name is bob smith
and im talking to you now
and hitting enter every now and then"
and the name of the textbox is $message
how could i get it to take the contents of the text box and put it in
$message as is, with blank lines and carrige returns that the user has put
in, becuase as you know that would just come out as
"Hi my name is bob smith and im talking to you now and hitting enter every
now and then"
Any help would be great.
