Hello
Can any help please. When I have a message field the reply email comes back in one big paragraph. If someone does 'returns' in the text area field, how can I achieve the new paragraphs for viewing in the email body?
many thanks
Danny

Hi,
if it´s PHP, using "nl2br" (new line to break) should work:
<?php echo nl2br($_POST['messagefield']); ?>

Hello
Thanks for that. I tried this but it still doesn't seem to work. I have used the custom form wizard from the MX Kollection and the coding generates the following for the text area
<textarea name="Message" id="Message" cols="33" rows="5"><?php echo KT_escapeAttribute($row_rscustom['Message']); ?></textarea>
Is this the right coding to put in the 'new line to break'?
Many thanks
Danny

no, you wouldn´t have to add nl2br to the textarea code, because a textarea does produce line breaks already, you´d need to apply nl2br to the script or the page that´s sending the email -- are you using MX Send Email for that ?
One hint :: If you´d replace the standard textarea with KTML or any other WYSIWYG editor like TinyMCE, you´d actually get real HTML line breaks (<br />), and MX Send Email would send them correctly.
