i am using Custom Web publishing on Filemaker 5.

when i am displaying a longer text field in an html page i can't get the Line Breaks to show up in the html page.

is there some tag i can put in the filemaker text field that is going to show up in an html page?

thanks

there are a couple things you can do..

you can use this when displaying the field on the html page

[FMP-Field: FIELDNAME, Break]

this will put a carriage return in the text anywhere one appears in the field in the database..

or you can put this in the HTML code

[FMP-Field: FIELDNAME, raw]

then you could put <br> tags in the field in the database anywhere you wanted there to be a carriage return.

thanks so much, that works great!
