After much efforts, I finally have a simple Java server that connects to a browser through HTTPS. User submits a form to the server via browser. The server receives it, process it, and then I need to send back the result text as HTML code. The problem is that my results are formatted in JAVA; new lines are formatted by \n and tabs by \t as opposed to <br> and such, which is not recognized by the browser, and the text is messed up. How can I format the text to be HTML friendly?

You'll need to use regular expressions to find and replace the newline characters with <br>. Here's a similar question: replace \n and \r\n with <br /> in java
