I made a simple form with codecharge (Grid & Edit). On the edit page there is one field (message) that can contain a lot of text, so I used I textarea instead of a textbox. At the Grid page I displat this message in a label field like all the other fields. Now it seems that I can't display white lines between different alineas. All the text is just put togheter on one line. Is there a solution to this ? Because it is necessary that the text is displayed exactly as the user typed it (alineas, white lines, ...).
Don't know if this is a stupid question, but I would be gratefull for some help.

See how it's done in Forum example , new line symbols
are replaced with <br> tags. You can do the same with other symbols.

I checked the forum example, copied the line "$fldmessage = str_replace("\n", "<br>", $fldmessage);" and it works ... But then I change the layout a bit (different colors, some background images) and then the text is show with <br> instead of white lines. So it says "Here comes a white line <br> <br>" instead of "Here comes a white line
" What could I be doing wrong ? I didn't change anything to the php code, just the html layout. The checkbox HTML is checked at the field message, and the line "$fldmessage = str_replace("\n", "<br>", $fldmessage);" is added at the 'before show' event.
I can't find the problem.  Please help me ...
