Add line breaks to comments during checkout

[cDGo IT Consultancy]

Hi,

I'm trying to add some text to the comments during checkout.
The only issue which occurs is that line breaks do not work.
\n or <br> are plain visible, while the "shift enter" linebreaks from the textarea input just work as expected.
It sounds really easy to do, but I'm overseeing it, any help is appreciated.

Hi Burt,

Tried that before, but didn't work, but maybe doing it on the wrong place or wrong way.

On checkout_shipping.php page I manually enter:
Line 1
Line 2
Line 3

In checkout_shipping.php:
    $comments = '';
    if (tep_not_null($_POST['comments'])) {
      $comments .= tep_db_prepare_input($_POST['comments']);
    }

After that I'm trying to do something like:
$comments .= '\n\r' . $key . ': ' . $value;

On the checkout_payment.php page the comments look like:
Line 1
Line 2
Line 3\n\rkey: value

[burt]

$comments .= $key . ': ' . $value . PHP_EOL;
