Ok, to make it a bit more difficult... :) How would I ignore inserting carriage returns is the carriage return comes after a "<ul>", "<li>", "</li>", or "</ul>"?
This is so that the site owner can edit the text on the front page of the website themselves. There is a <ul> in the current text.

Keep in mind, however, if you stick <br> into a DB and pull it back to a form for edits later, you need to convert the <br> back to carriage returns. The string below will do that: #REREPLACE("#myoutputstring#","<br>","#chr(13)#","all")# Hope that helps. Robert B.
