[nycphp-talk] Textarea formatting

Hello all,

I have a textarea field that can .. store text.

I'm using it to save emails for example w/a form.
I grab the posted data and call addslashes( ) then stick it into the 
database, varchar(1024). (this is a calendar app for my own use).

Now, when I pull it out, its not formatted and displaying it on the screen 
is just one long line.

How can I keep newlines/r and formatting from the text that is input into 
the textarea box?

Thanks.

- Ben
