Forum line break problem

sane

Is anyone else having a line break problem with there forum posts? If I post a reply or a topic all the line breaks are removed and the post looks like one big paragraph. Is anyone else having this problem? I broke up this post but watch it will work this time.

ya, you can use <br> but you shouldn't have to. It can be done with one line of code in PHP and I'm guessing it can be done in one line in ASP as well.

It's always been this way here, we've just adapted. You're right that we shouldn't have to use the html, but overall this place is good enough that its worth putting up with.

I agree that this place is worth putting up with a small irritation such as this, it is worth putting up with large irritation but it would be nice to not have to think about it.

ASP.NET, actually, but yes. It's just a matter encoding the linebreaks as <br> tags. However, it should be noted that that's not ccom's fault. They're using out-of-the-box forum software.
