How to keep the format of the content of a MultiLine TextBox. For example,
'new line'

I try the code:
------------------------------
TextBox.Text = "TERANET / MPAC - KEY TERMS OF USE \n" & _
"3.1 \n" & _
.......
------------------------------

The display in Browser is:
------------------------------
TERANET / MPAC - KEY TERMS OF USE \n3.1\n ...
------------------------------

Thanks a lot!

The browser ignores extra whitespace. If you try to put 3 spaces in a row,
it will only show you one.
Try using <brfor a newline.

Oh hold on, you are talking about a textbox here. Sorry, I thought you just
had text right in the HTML.

Try using System.Environment.Newline instead of '\n'.
