HTML-Tags in field

I have a db-entry with <br/> -tags. . The value in the db is correct with the <br/> -Tags but when i display the data with {joodb fieldname} the value is returned as string without the html tags. How can I get the value with the html tags?

Thanks for your help

Joodb does not change the output of text or varchar fields. Only if they are urls or emails.
Can you tell us what kind data this field is? (VARCHAR,TEXT,BLOB)

Btw: use {joodb field|fieldname} ... {joodb fieldname} might be a function!

I have the same problem. Any field with html tags in it (for example a description field with formatting) initially displays the html correctly but if you edit the item you see the html tags in the field but when you save it they are stripped out.
In my case this is a VARCHAR(2000) field.

So how can we stop the joodb form save routine stripping out html tags when writing to the database?

Related to that is there a way to have a the edit form display a text area for a field rather than a simple text box. And better yet is there a way to have an rtf editor (eg tinymce, the system editor) for a field?

I vaguely recall having a similar problem which I fixed by disabling the Text editor for this component. Try turning off your editor (set to none) and then see if the issue occurs. In my case JCEeditor was not playing nicely with JooDB and so I used the JCE settings to disable its use for JooDB.

Hope this helps.
