I have database text fields that I am putting "<br />" in so that they
will appear on the web page with linebreaks in the text where I want
them. But when the fields are shown, this does not work - the source
looks like &lt;br /&gt;. How do I get around this?
Thanks,
Marv
 
The HTML is being encoded. Its HtmlEncode being used or the database is
encoding the HTML. Learn how to avoid encoding the data and store it as
unencoded HTML.
