Removing leading <br> tag

[meckeard]

All,

I store data with HTML tags and need to remove a leading <br> tag if present.

I tried a few things, also used the Server.HtmlDecode with no luck.

How can I do this?

Thanks.

try replace() functions..

Replace(yourfield, "<br>","")

-DNG

or this...

Replace(yourfield, chr(10),"")

-DNG

But wouldn't this replace all instances of a break tag? I only need one if it's at the beginning of my string.

oh ok...use left function...

Replace(left(yourfield,1), chr(10),"")

-DNG
