php print each line from textarea

Question

i have this code

<textarea rows="4" cols="50"  type="text" name="ytburl" /></textarea>       
<input type="submit" value="START" name="submit" />

$ytburl = $_POST["ytburl"];
echo 'link '.$ytburl.' is here'

so if in textarea i put 2 links:

then i get this output:

link example.com/11111 example.com/22222 is here

i want to get this output:

link example.com/22222 is here

Answer 1

If you want to just print text like it was sent you can use nl2br() function to replace all new line characters to HTML tags.

But it's not best idea to just print data unfiltered so combine it with strip_tags() function.

echo nl2br(strip_tags($variable));

Answer 2

Try this

<?php
$arrLines = explode(' ', $variable);
foreach($arrLines AS $line){
    echo $line . '<br/>';
}
?>
