I think what Jarno was suggesting is the following:
<td valign="top"><pre><xsl:value-of select="description"/></pre></td>
Try that and see if that does what you want. If it doesn't, would you post
the resulting HTML code so we have a chance to see what is going wrong?
Thank you,
Steve

i have tried:
<td valign="top" class="paragraph"> <xsl:value-of
select="description"/></td>
where "paragraph" is a css property containing:
.paragraph {
white-space: pre;
}
and "description" is the xml value that contains text from the DB but still
doesn't work.
Any more ideas please??

Hi,
I have an intranet which user add data ot it using form, and
it's saved in
the SQL 2000 DB. If the user put a paragraph in this form and
saves it in
the DB, how can this data be displayed using xml/xslt so that
it appears
exactly th way the user input it i.e. with paragraphs?
Add
white-space: pre;
CSS property to the element that contains the text.
