Making an Unordered List?

Hello all. I'm new to PHP (having worked with Cold Fusion, previously), so this may seem like a rather simple question but.... I am using PHP4 and PostgreSQL. I have a Database (Products) that has a field titled "Item_Description", holding various points of information about a single "Item". For each "Item", I want to be able to display the "Item_Description" as points in an unordered list. I have placed the character "~" between each point that needs to be seperated in the "Item_Description" field. Example of what's in the database now: Item: soda Item_Descritpion: sweet~low in sodium~100 calories per serving~carbonated I want to be able to output this as: soda * sweet * low in sodium * 100 calories per serving * carbonated ...Now the question... How do I get PHP/PostgreSQL to replace each "~" with "<LI>", and just output all of the other text as-is? Each "Item" has a varying amount of points to display, so I can not depend on a constant number of "~" characters being encountered for each of them. I hope that that explination was clear. Thanks in advance for the help! -- Sabrina Goodpaster Head of Technical Support and Web Development Blueriver Networking Services, Inc.
