what have you tried? Is there something specifically that you cant get to work? The formatting chars should be in there.

[tyemqn]

If I used more than 1 space it doesn't display likes inputed. (ex: I try to display words in center or indent more than one space when I view whatever inputed it should display the same as I inputed......in my case - RESUME FORMAT) It displays just one space and doesn't indent. I hope you understand what i mean. :)

have you tried using htmlentities [ca.php.net] maybe?

Jatar K - thanks

Can anyone show me how to use those functions? It would be great if you can give me the code. I am a beginner of PHP :)

Thanks in advance

You'll find that the online PHP Manual pages have quite a bit of useful information that should get you over the beginning stages.
