BR's in a textarea?

[Roger Godefroy]

Hi,

I have a form with a textarea. When I try to get the content using e.g.
$_POST["textfieldn ame"] the BR's are stripped out? How could this be fixed?

Greetz,

Roger

<?php
$fixed = nl2br($_POST["textfieldn ame"]);
?>

Check the manual: http://www.php.net/nl2br
[for some reason this URL is not working for me right now]

I have a spam filter working.
To mail me include "urkxvq" (with or without the quotes)
in the subject line, or your mail will be ruthlessly discarded.
