Personally, I don't go to extra lengths to insert those newlines. Mostly
because I have to sometimes move data from MySQL to a tab-delimetd text
file, and those extra linefeeds can cause problems.
If you want to do it, here's the how-to:
---------------------------------------
Insert this character combination: /n/r
Example ISNERT Query:
INSERT INTO my_table VALUES ('This is the 1st line<BR>/n/rThis is the 2nd');
Later on, when it's read from the database an put on a web page, the "view
source" would look like:
This is the 1st line<BR>
This is the 2nd
Hope this helps. God bless!
