I forgot to ask also that how should I handle the displaying for this value
in eg. a table cell after it is pulled out from the database...



I add this example, if my question was too fuzzy...

[example <textarea> submission]
blahblahblah

blahblah
blahblah
blahblah
blahblah
   blahblah
   blahblah
   blahblah

blahblah
[/example]
