Hello I am facing a problem in my website development, I am using a html text area on my web page which is used to fill a field in database. The problem is that when I submit the text it converts the multiline text into single line.

e.g
Hello,
I am a super hero.

Will be converted int
Hello I am a super hero.

Please help me how to avoid this.

Thanks
