Hi,
I have a textarea where users enter information about themselves. Then i used htmlspecialchars on it for obvious reason. The problem is tho when i use:
print $row['info'];
it displays the text all in one paragraph disregarding the spaces the user put.
For example the user has put:
"Hello my name is John,
I go to U of T and im graduating this year"
when i print it, it shows:
"Hello my name is John, I go to U of T and im grauating this year"
it fully disregards the new line the user has put. How can I fix this problem?
thanks
