Hi,
I am using RichEdit box (i downloaded it from www.gerd-tentler.de/tools/richedit/index.html) on my page for formatting text and storing text with html tags in database. But, when i try to get this text (eg. <P> kkjkjkj </P>) from database using <c:out value='${LongDesc}' /> it converts all the tags into: & lt;P& gt;kkjkjkj& lt;/P& gt;.

I want to know some way that jsp don't convert tags into & lt; and & gt;

I am using JDK1.5, Tomcat 5 and MySQL.

Thanks for any help.

Regards,
Farhan

Use <c:out value="..." escapeXml="false" />

By default, escapeXml is true.
