Hi there

I have a text area within a form that collects user data and enters this
into access db. Later this text is pulled out and put onto a page.

What I want to achieve is some formatting options for the user but I only
want CR and strong and no other formatting options available.

Any ideas welcome. Thanks.

Raj

Use CSS to set the text attributes to anything you want after the data is
retrieved when you write to the page.

ASP can't apply styles to the content of a text area.  If you want to
find a way of allowing users to be able to do this, you need to post a
question to a client-side group.  Try comp.lang.javascript.
