[FX.php List] Add data to a field with a return

[Steve Winter]

Hi Stephe,

Try using 
	$addNote = $today . ' - ' . $User . ' - ' . $Note . "\r\n" . $currentnote ;
and see how that goes... another alternative is to actually layout (in your source code) what you want;
	$addNote = $today . ' - ' . $User . ' - ' . $Note . "

" . $currentnote ;
which will also achieve the desired outcome 

Cheers
Steve
