You might also try #chr(10)# as well as #chr(13)#

cheers Robin.....
I tried:
<tr class="matchtableleft">
<td valign="top">Comments:</td>
<td>#replace("#getcomments.comments#",chr(13),"<br>","all")#</td>
</tr>
but it has made no difference?? have i got the syntax wrong?

2 options I can think of
1. Use <pre></pre> tags to output exactly as the user input the code.
2. User replace(myFieldContents,chr(13),"<br>","ALL")

I have a form with a multi line text box.
On the action page - i am trying to display the contents of the text
box
but
it is not formatting the line feeds/carriage returns properly.
If the user enters some text and hits enter on the text box after
writing
some text to start a new line and then enters more text, then the
resultant
action page just puts 1 space between the two blocks of text instead
of
starting the text on a new line.
If the user enters some text then hits enter twice to effectively
start a
new line of text with a line of gap in between the last one - then the
action page renders this correctly.
Do I need to use a certain function to uphold the carriage returns and
line
feeds accurately? I had a look at HTMLEditFormat and HTMLCodeFormat
but
neither upholds the formatting
