HTML code in fields

[MZGuy]

I want to be able to put html code like <br>, <a href=... etc. into some of the text field in my database, so that those are not displayed as code, but parsed as normal html code when displayed in the detail view.
Anyone know where to edit or if I'm missing something. Any help is appreciated.

I have just installed and created a front end to a database and don't know if this applies to all fields but have added a <font> tag to the hint for couple of fields to reduce the size on the form and it works.
The only change had to make was leave out the quotes round the size figure ie
<font size=1> not <font size="1"> havn't tried other fields but should be parsed ok when included within the html table/form display.

Hope that helps!!

Within any SQL database, I believe you can put all the html you want in there, however, its just like PERL, you have to

\"text\"

etc. . .

You could have written:

<font size=\"1\">

What I usually do is just a find and replace. . .fine " replace with \".

Let me know if you have any other ?'s,
