i made a page for a friend, and made him another page that edits it. It prints out all the html, then you can edit it and save it. The only problem is if he presses enter(to organize and stuff), its adds <BR> tags the page. How can I fix this?

And i cant jsut take out all the <BR>s, because he may type one in.

hard to debug something like that without a link and the code...
maybe you should post both

find where the receiving code does a "replace(request.form("text_area_name")),vbcrlf,"< br>")" and comment it out.

may not be exactly as that but you should get something like it.
