Hi all,
I have a php script which produces text which is to be displayed in
a textarea. I have the wrap for the text area set to 'hard'. I need to
have newlines inserted in the text.
"\n" and "<br>" don't work. They just get quoted literally in the
text. I suspect I need to use htmlspecialchars , but don't know what
special character to feed it.
Apologies if this should go to an HTML forum. I checked several
archives and did not find anything useful. (They tended to tell me to
put in \n or <br>!)
Thanks
Mary Anderson

\n, or just a plain line break, should work.
<?php
echo '<textarea>Hello,
My favorite color is blue.
Signed,
Me!';
?>
Should work.
