format mysql output
Hi.

I am using PHP to get data out of a mysql database. One of the fields holds a text entry like:

line one

line two

Obviously when I display this in html the whitespace and new lines get dropped. is there a way to pull mysql output in html format or something?

RE: format mysql output
You can use a function called nl2br() to convert newlines to breaking returns..then use can use str_replace to turn all spaces into non-breaking spaces - &nbsp; ...that should do the trick...
