Hi
I have text which I submit to and retrieve from a database. When I
submit to the database, it seems that the line breaks are preserved, but
when I want to retrieve the text to my browser, everything becomes one
long on-going stream of text. Presumably the \n line breaks exist in the
database but they have to be converted to <p> tags for the browser to
display them as line breaks.
I am using a jsp which has a vector called log_messages to obtain the
messages from the database. After obtaining them, I then display these
messages with the following code.
<% for (i =0; i < log_message.size(); i ++) { %>
<p> Message: <%out.println(log_message.get(i).toString());%>
<% } %>
But I would like to convert the newline characters \n (which presumably
are there in some of the message bodies) to <p> statements so new
paragraphs will be showing. Is there an easy way to do this?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Hugo
