Re: text comin back in one line

html Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
  1. <td width=""><p><?php echo nl2br(wordwrap($message, 75, PHP_EOL, true)); ?></p></td>

The wordwrap function breaks your content down with PHP_EOL which is a constant that is defined to match the proper end of line charachter for your operating system.

Then uses nl2br to convert them to <br>'s including any ones the user entered.

the only thing i caution is against using the last parameter of "true" as this will allow php to cut words in half instead of breaking at the nearest word break
