Re: Replacing new lines in multi line text box form fields with <br>.

[tachyon]

Use a character class to deal with LF CR and CRLF line endings. A standard newline after the
maintains readability.

$INPUT{'comments'} =~ s/[\r\n]+/<br>\n/g;

[Smylers]

$INPUT{'comments'} =~ s/[\r\n]+/<br>\n/g;

That isn't a good pattern to use, because it means that two line-breaks in the input, such as used to indicate a paragraph break, become only one in the output.

You're right. s/\r\n|\r|\n/<br>\n/g is better.
