Server Behavior - Dynamic Text

[BurritoVictim]

Hi, all

This may be something simple, not sure, as I continue to search for an answer.
I have some text in a SQL database that I'm displaying using Dreamweaver
MX2004's Server Behavior - Dynamic Text. The text pulls in just fine, but it's
just one big chunck of text. I am sumitting the text to the database via an
update form I created in Dreamweaver (I'm trying to create a web app so that my
client can update her own content and I'm testing it) and when I enter the text
I have four separate paragraphs, however it is displaying it as one big
rambling paragraph. Can anyone advise me on what I am missing? Please and
thank you!

John,

Check out this extension/suite:

Then use the "Preserve Whitespace" function.

Thanks, Mitchel - I'm using ASP.NET (aspx) pages and it doesn't seem to work with them. Is it ASP only? If it's any help to further expound, I'm using VB.

Found the answer - so simple actually (sigh). Added Replace(Chr(13), "<br>")
to my dynamic text line and it solved everything. Like this:

<%# dsMysite.FieldValue("main", Container).Replace(Chr(13), "<br>") %>

Yay!
