text box data adds html tags -help

[Injun]

My code :
***code***
Dim vComment : vComment =request("hComment")
response.write "vIssue=" & vComment

<INPUT style="WIDTH: 547px; HEIGHT: 108px" name=S1 value ="<%=vComment%>"></INPUT >

*** end code***

Now, the INPUT textbox data looks like this

<i>ABCPerson, Sep 1 2006 8:30AM</i>]<br>Approved<br><br>[<i>Michael John Aug 25, 2006 - 4:09 PM</i>]<br>TEST for TONY

I want it to look like the real data in the variable vComment which is below :

ABCPerson, Sep 1 2006 8:30AM
Approved

I think what you probably want is a Textarea, not an Inputbox

So like this:

<textarea rows="8" cols="63" name="S1">ABCPerson, Sep 1 2006 8:30am
Approved
Michael John
Test for TONY</textarea>

Start each value on a new line to get them spaced that way or do some formating
