Folks,

I am cross-posting on purpose, even though my problem appears to be
javascript related there might well be a function unknownst to me that
will help resolve the problem before sending to the client...

Basically I have a textarea box that is saved from client via php into
my mysql database.

When I later try to restore the data I can see it in the HTML source
from my browser (I'm using latest version of Firefox) but an error in
the javascript console tells me the variable is not terminated... This
is because there is a newline character in my text.

I've tried addslashes and htmlentities in php but its not worked for
me - can someone advise me of what the solution/workround is?

(Please reply to the group and not me to help others)

thanks!
