help me in PHP !

Hai..
I have problem in getting contents from textarea in my form.For example: user writes 2 paragraphs, when I try to show it on the next page, that two paragraphs become one paragraph.I would like to get the contents exactly like what user have written.

I have used : eregi_replace("\n","<BR>",$contents)
but there is no "\n" in $contents.
Can you help me???

Try this:

$newContents = nl2br( $contents );

and to get it back again to put in a text box (if you need to):

$contents = eregi_replace( '<br>', "\n", $newContents );

Hope this helps you.
