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

[Stephe Pocock]

Hi Steve

I always think Croc man when I see your posts :)

Thanks a lot ... that works.  I will have to see how it goes when the notes 
field gets large.

Thanks again

Stephe

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
