RE: Strange output phenomenon
the information shouldn't be going INTO the db with paragraph format. you should have WRAP="HARD" in your textarea control, then insert the data straight.

RE: Strange output phenomenon - Nevermind
Turns out I was looking at wrong version of the output file. The correct version was parsing out the "1" and "3" characters. - doh ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
