Replace cr/nl with html break tag

[jc net]

Hi I have a normal string-variable in asp.net/c#, that contains cr/nl characters that I want to replace with
tags. When viewing the string in debugmode in VS2005, I can see them in there as "\r\n". I have tried replacing with: str.Replace("\r\n","
"); str.Replace(Environment.Newline,"
"); but it does not work. How can I do that? Wonder if its something about UniCode-characters. Thanks.

This should work fine. You should put a closing tag in your breaks, so they are XHTML. What happens when you try this ?

Are you just calling them like this? str.Replace("\r\n","<br>"); str.Replace(Environment.Newline,"<br>"); Or are you actually assigning the value back to str? str = str.Replace("\r\n","<br>"); str = str.Replace(Environment.Newline,"<br>");
