I know someone out there has to be able to answer this question. It's not difficult I just can't seem to figure it out.

I have a field in the database table called ARTICLES. Within this field users will input HTML as well as text. My problem is that when I add the Dynamic Text field to a page, it's treating the data like it was just TEXT not TEXT & HTML. So all my formatting that is added to the text (<B>, <BR>'s) actually show up as <BR> and <B> </B> instead of linebreaks and bold, etc.

When I set format of binding to Server.EncodeHTML it does nothing. There has to be a way to tell it that this Data should be treated as HTML not just text.

Thanks

You can change your input type for the Memo field to virtual.

In UD4 this is found by selecting the memo field and right clicking the mouse to access properties. You do not have to use the Server.EncodeHTML option.
