I think the best way to do that is to replace the
\r\nsequence with<br />tags, using whatever scripting language your database-backed website is in.Other options include placing the text within a
<textarea>. Or, if it is appropriate for your site, using akin to the<pre>tag (or the CSS attributewhite-space: pre).
