In a form I have a textarea at the time of entering data the income of the following form.
But when I call it from the database it pulls me like a line
Is there any way to get it sorted out as you entered it at the beginning? I'm using codeigniter. I hope you have explained well greetings.
In order to present the data the way you want, you could use the explode and then go through the data in foreach to add a line break. Something like this:
$s = "-Requerimiento 1 -Requerimiento 2 -Requerimiento 3";
$r = explode("-",$s);
foreach($r as $key => $value){
if($value != null){
echo $value."<br/>";
}
}
This will give you back:
Requerimiento 1
Requerimiento 2
Requerimiento 3
The problem is that in a textarea the line breaks are established with the command "\ n". If you paint this string in a browser you will not see this line break because in html the line break is the <br> tag.
If in the textarea you write -requerimiento1 <br> -requerimiento2 <br> ... you will see as if later that the line break is reflected.
You must convert \ n in <br> . You can do this before uploading the form in javascript. Before saving it in db in PHP or reading it before using the data.
To change the codes in javascript:
... HTML ...
<textarea id="userText"></textarea>
.... JS ....
//con jQuery
var value = $('#userText').val();
//sin jQuery
var value = document.getElementById('userText').value;
In PHP there are several alternatives. Replace characters with str_replace for example.
