Fckeditor would probably get you closest to the original formatting. But if
you don�t want to use that, this should get 90% of your line breaks.

As for line breaks, I usually just use 
#replace(str, "#chr(13)##chr(10)#", "<br>", "ALL")#

You could do the same thing for tabs (just replace them with spaces or
whatever)

Subject: text formatting

I am building a form that allows a user to 'cut and paste' their resume into
a textarea. I then take this data, and insert it into the database.
When re-displayed, it looks horrible; there is no formatting at all.
I tried using the paragraphFormat() function, but this didn't really help
too much. I don't want anything fancy, I just need it to at least recognize
line breaks, tabs etc.
If anyone knows of a solution for this, or can point me in the right
direction, I would greatly appreciate it...thanks!
