newlines won't display in browser - Mailing list pgsql-php

Hi,

hi, how do you put a newline in a TEXT data type?

when inputting from a form into a textarea box..the return key creates
a newline, which is reflected in psql monitor but not when displaying
the page with php

when I try inputting \n in the browser textarea form, they appear in
the webpage for some reason, in psql monitor, they appear as "\n" but
also make a newline
