i displayed a few paragraph in my web page which was stored in the mysql table as a blob, but it was not displayed as a paragraph ( with no enter, in single line). Can some one help me if there is an extra code needed to display it correctly.

EX:
this is first para
this is second para
this is third para

above is the stored blob type content

when it is displayed it shows like
this is first para this is second para this is third para

Now i need to correct this, can any one have any idea.

did you store it as html?? or just plain text?

if you saved it as plain text, in html, try displaying the blob inside the

tags.

normally, its better to save it as html

ma_ko_hoo bro use nl2br function...like this

echo nl2br(mysql_field_name)..

another way.....

use
echo ereg_replace("\n","
", mysql_field_name);

which will replaces all newline charecters (\n) to html tag.

sorry, line break tag did not show up in above post

echo ereg_replace("\n","<br>", mysql_field_name);

Thanks buddies, I will try as suggested.
