Answer 1

you have to check this question:
Parse form textarea by comma or new line

using that in your code:

 <?php

 if(isset($_POST['url']))
 {


 $input = $_POST['url']; 

 $data = preg_split("/[\r\n]+/", $input, -1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
 var_dump($data);



 }

?>

$data array will have the required data
