You can use the coldfusion replace function to replace any string with either an html break tag, or the appropriate chr functions, depending on how you are generating your line breaks. That's the easy part.

The first hard part is to get 100% of your users to do what you want 100% of the time.

The second part is to figure out the difference between a symbol, such as a percentage sign, that is supposed to indicate a line break as opposed to simply being part of the article.
