Insert() method question of the database class - El Forum - 06-09-2008

[eluser]phybertek[/eluser]
Hello,

I am inserting comments in to a listing I am writing. I'm using the Active Record method insert. I'm trying to figure out the best way to reserve or convert \n to <br>.

When data is posted this is what I see when I output the data from the database:

Input:

Hello, this is really coool!

-Phybertek

Results:

Hello, this is really cool! -Phybertek

-=-=-
Any ideas on the best way to input this data or output it?

Code:
public function comment_add()    

{

    // Insert into comments    

    $this->db->insert('comments',$_POST);

    redirect('list/event/' . $_POST['id'], 'location');

} //end comment_add

Even this post on this forum doesn't respect tabs.. How can you do this?
