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

Show the code.

Cheers,
