Flash and mysql, stripslashes?

I’ve got some info in a database which I want to display in flash. I have a php page that i call with loadvars that returns the values from the database and displays them in flash. The only problem I’m having so far is that in the database some of the values need to have line breaks. So i insert them as "
". But flash just shows the actual text "
" instead of a linebreak. I tried using stripslashes on the variable as i send it to flash (thinking it was sending
and a stripslashes would make it
), but then flash only shows “n”. I’m very confused lol. Anyone know of a simple way to get
to work this way?
