[FX.php List] Access text formating of a filemaker text field

[DC]

try smarty as a general solution to this problem. it helps you keep 
formatting commands where they should be... in an HTML template file and 
*not* in your database. it is very easy to download and install and even 
has a good crash course to help you get started.

you'll be glad you did.
