Dear Mr Ardav,
thanks for reply..

I have a form + a send program to send text in a row in mySQL. This is work fine, so when you add some enter key, the <br> is not send to the data base, and all the text is writin on the same line. I have to use de <br> command to do that, so this is not very friendly for the end user.

the code is

<p align="left">
                  <textarea name="detail" cols="70" rows="8" id="detail"></textarea>
                </p>

When you echo details on page use nl2br function.

echo nl2br($detail);
