I wrote a script for a website I am making that allows writers of the website to post articles without having to actually open of the files of the web site. I made a web page that has a text area where they can submit there work. Then at the Web site when you click on a link to the article it will use a script to open to textfile and show it on the page 45 lines at a time with a link ot the next 45 lines(so it can fit in the page). But recently I realized a problem, if you copy and paste alot of text into the textarea it messes the program up since the program splits the lines up by seperating \n charcters. Any ideas?
