I have a textarea in a form, and I tried to enter this...
eg:
Hi,
This is sample.
and then when I tried to echo the text I get
Hi, This is sample.
How can I manage to have a line break show? Thanks.

You can just insert the text into textarea as it is.
But I suppose you would like to display this text as HTML somewhere, so use nl2br() function.

Check Typography Class.
The Typography Class provides functions that help you format text.
