Hello!
How to preserve spaces of text that is stored in a record from a text area?

I'm not quite sure what exactly you're asking. Spaces are preserved automatically in strings.

Post some of your code or try being a little more specific! <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=1 face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>

put this above the &lt;html&gt;


&lt;SCRIPT RUNAT=SERVER LANGUAGE=VBSCRIPT&gt;
function PreserveWhitespace(str)
tabStr = chr(160)&chr(160)&chr(160)&chr(160)&chr(160)
str = Replace(str,chr(10),chr(10)&"&lt;BR&gt;"
str = Replace(str,chr(9),tabStr)
PreserveWhitespace = str
End Function
&lt;/SCRIPT&gt;


and then when displaying your recordset in the body use this

&lt;%= PreserveWhitespace((Recordset1.Fields.Item("whatever_table".Value)) %&gt;

thats it
