David, thank you for asking.
I'm using MSIE 6.x to view.
I'm not sure if we're on the same page. I know about using <BR> and
<br/> within the browser (if we're talking about the same thing) but
it's the output from the database that isn't working. Somehere
between the database and output using PHP I loose the hard returns.
For example, if I was to enter...
Topic A
Now is the time for all men
to come to the aid of their nation.
That's who it would show up in the database, but trying to output it
into my page it'll look like...
Topic A Now is the time for all men to
come to the aid of their nation.
I hope that helps.
Ward
