Displaying textarea content to html table

Have php pulling result and echoing rows to table, problem i have is when outputting data submitted from a textarea within a form is i get one line and no wrap. Not sure how to get this output formatted properly

The quicker way is probably just to use <pre> tags.

Or do a little regular expression like:

Code:

preg_replace('/$/','<br />',$mytext)
