\\ r \\ n \\ r \\ n字符串进入纯文本

Question

I am facing an issue of using form input that I need to send as a text email and then put into the database.

When I send it as a text email, the newline characters show up as \\r\\n\\r\\n in the plain text email, but do not show up like that when stored in the DB.

I am using PHP/MySQL - what would be the fix to stop the \\r\\n\\r\\n characters from showing up in the email that gets sent out?

Thank you, Alex

Answer 1

A possible cause of this might be database sanitizing (like mysqli_real_escape_string). I've done the same mistake by systematically sanitizing even variables that were never passed to the database.

Answer 2

send the email as text/html and use

<p> or <br>
