TextArea line breaks for e-mail
html, php, phpmailer
Solution
use \n for new line, or \r\n for return followed by new line
ie.
<?php
printf("This is the first line. \n");
printf("This is the second line");
?>
ie. to replace html tag with newline:
str_replace ('<br>' , '\r\n', $_POST['field'])
alternativly set the email you are sending out to be html encoded (add html header)
Problem
How can I take the text from a textarea (html) and insert line breaks. Right now, if I input info to send out as an e-mail, it puts all the text on the same line without any line breaks. Using $_POST['field'] to get the data from the form and sending using PHP mail.
