This actually sounds more like an issue with your html coding. If you
are executing select statements against postgres, a row of data is
returned, are you writing a <br> via perl/php to the screen before the
next row of data is retreived?

If the data returned all in one call then you need to change the way the
data is being saved into postgres. Have the application insert a <br>
after each line before it writes the data into the table.
