How can I save multiline text from a multiline textbox into database in ASP.NET? [duplicate]

Question

I am working on a web development project where I want add details for particular foods. So I added a multiline textbox where I want to type the details. I wanted to save that details into database and later wanted to use those text in another page reading from the database. But when I am showing those text into another webpage all the text are showing into single line. What should I do to resolve this problem?

Carriage returns don't render on a web page. When you display the text you need to replace carriage returns with "br" tags. — David

Try showing the \n (new line) this way:

text.Replace("\n","<br/>")

Use textarea instead of textbox and then get data using getInnerHTML this helps to save formatted data
