Access Data loses paragraph formating

I have a note field that I'm pulling from Microsoft Access.
The data in the original database is formatted with paragraph returns.  I can see them when I paste the data into MicrosoftUser generated image Word.
But when I display the data on an html page, it has no paragraph formatting.

Original Data:
IT4, HI VIS, 3YD, FORKS, 3RD LDR VALVE, L3 BS, RIDE CONT, CAMERA
(12) FULL 194  DAYS 8/31/15
HOLD T/O TYRINHAM MILLER 04-27-2015
RENT UEL ANDY LAMPSON
HOLD KING MATERIALS ANDY LAMPSON...

But shows in html as
IT4, HI VIS, 3YD, FORKS, 3RD LDR VALVE, L3 BS, RIDE CONT, CAMERA (12) FULL 194 DAYS 8/31/15 HOLD T/O TYRINHAM MILLER 04-27-2015 RENT UEL ANDY LAMPSON HOLD KING MATERIALS ANDY LAMPSON

Is there some way I can maintain the formatting ?

Yes, you have to use the html <tags> to format the text.

Perfect - I changed  "</ br>") to  "</br>") {removed the space}
Thank you for teaching me that.
