How to show a complete textarea ??

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

I enter Client Case Notes notes in a textarea field on a PHP form. The field is 5 rows deep and 70 chars wide , using the scroll bar to see beyond 5 lines.

After entering notes, I want to echo or print the entire textarea without the scrollbar so that i do File Print to print out the complete notes. The problem is that using Print or Printf of the textarea variable prints a stream all on one line, with no newlines - this is too wide to print out for longer notes.

how can i do this?
