I have a sObject that has a field called text__c.
I wish to display it on the visual force page.
The text will have line breaks in it.
Is there anyway for me to display this on a VisualForce page to include the line breaks, or must I break it up into multiple entries?
I was hoping that there would be a way to replace any set of characters, whether it is a /n
or <br />
from the field with an actual <br/>
html tag.
Thank you.

You can use apex:outputText with the
escape
attribute explicitly set to "false". Note however that this opens you up to security risks with injected content, such as JavaScript and other HTML tags.
