I have a TLF editable field in a(n) swf file. Text entered there gets sent to a php page where everything is processed. I had the behavior set for multiline, but just realized that if someone hits return and keeps typing, no break is displayed (not even a space). I've tried using nl2br() in the php when it grabs the POST variable from flash, but that doesn't work. I don't know how flash handles the carriage return, so I don't know how to handle it on the php side either.

My thumbnails share the same height but vary in width and, for some reason, are overlapping and/or appearing in the incorrect order.As you can see the first 4 thumbs and the 6th thumb are okay (they share the same width) whereas the 5th is missing (actually it is about 10 thumbs down, overlapped with another).
