After doing a conversion from asp 1.0 to 2.0 I'm also upgrading all of my datagrids to gridviews. &nbsp;What I'm doing is using a mysql query to bind it to a databound field in a gridview. &nbsp;The datagrids were able to handle the &lt;BR&gt; and add the appropriate line break, however the gridview is actually adding &lt;BR&gt; to the text. &nbsp;I've tried adding controlchars.NewLine within my concat function of mysql but that didn't work. &nbsp;I also tried doing a .replace(&quot;&lt;BR&gt;&quot;, &quot;****&quot;), the '*' is for testing, during RowDataBound and PreRender but to no avail.<br />
<br />
Any Ideas??????

gridview omitting &lt;BR&gt; in databound field

The successor to Active Server Pages, ASP.NET websites utilize the .NET framework to produce dynamic, data and content-driven web applications and services. ASP.NET code can be written using any .NET supported language. As of 2009, ASP.NET can also apply the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern to web applications
