Php replace comma with newline

I do know that php can turn a newline into a
using nl2br[], but is there a way that it can turn a comma [,] into a
?

For instance on an HTML page a user enters a bunch of words that are separated by a comma. He then submits it, it gets sent to a PHP file like normal and instead of the data getting sent right into the database, it goes through some kind of function to replace the commas with
.

So if I were to show the data on an HTML page, each thing they entered in that was separated by a comma is now separated by a newline/line break?

You can use a str_replace[] to replace any string by another, so also a comma with a
:

$output = str_replace[',', '
', $input];

I think php.net : str_replace is what you need.
