however, i want it to be like:

HTML

  line here   line here

My current markup is:

ASP.NET

<asp:RadioButtonList ID="RadioButtonList1" runat="server" RepeatDirection="Horizontal" Width="650px" Font-Size="Smaller">
    <asp:ListItem Selected="True" Value="0">Relax<br>(MY MAN)</asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem Value="1">Relax Again<br>(My Man)</asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem Value="2">Relax Again 2<br>(MyMan)</asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem Value="3">Relax 3<br>(My Man)</asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem Value="4">Relax 4<br>(My Man)</asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem Value="5">Relax 5<br>(My Man)</asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem Value="6">Relax 6<br>(My Man)</asp:ListItem>
</asp:RadioButtonList>

But it generates the following validation error messages: the element 'br' cannot be nested within the element 'listitem'.

What I have tried:

1. Reply to the comment so that the user is notified.
2. I think what you are asking is that you want a line break in your listItem's text? Is that right?

It's confusing because you have item1, item2 in your description but then you show Relax, Relax Again, etc.

Simple, remove the <br> from your List Items.

If you want a <br> in List Items and SQP don't want, I think we have a case of divorce.

Yes, that gets rid of the error of course, but OP's real question is how to get a line break in the item.
