Store it in the database just as it was typed. Dont format it. When you output it, use...
#replace(var, '#chr(13)##chr(10)#', '<br />', 'all')# -----Original Message----- From: Will Tomlinson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 20, 2006 7:42 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Best way to insert text as html, without a text editor What's the simplest way to maintain simple formatted text in a db, without using tinyMCE, FCKeditor, or typing html into the textarea? When I say simple, I mean I just want to show line breaks, carriage returns, etc. Not worried about boldness, tables, etc. I just tried using paragraphFormat() and it's using uppercase <P>'s. YUCK!
