Thanx

Are you trying to get it to display all the characters "<p>My data </p>" or "My data" formatted in a paragraph?

A typical form, where the data inputted is "<p>My data </p>" :

HTML Code:

<form method="post" action="file1.php" name="my">
Text: <input type="text" name="txtname" >
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

file1.php, displaying all characters:

PHP Code:

<?php
if(!empty($_POST["txtname"]))
{
 echo htmlspecialchars($_POST["txtname"]);
 }
?>

file1.php, displaying the text formatted in a paragraph:

PHP Code:

<?php
if(!empty($_POST["txtname"]))
{
 echo $_POST["txtname"];
 }
?>
