This indeed seems like a bug, here is test I just wrote:
[Test]
public void EscapeNewLine()
{
Assert.AreEqual(@"1:title=<Text\nMoreText>",
Eval(@"%{title='Text\\nMoreText'}"));
}
I haven't got time at the moment to try to trace down why this is happening,
you are more than welcome to though.
A workaround is to set a variable to the combined string and use the
variable in the dictionary.
Are you sure you want to put a "\n" into a title attribute, because IIRC
only IE consistently supports converting this into a new line. You may be
better off using one of the javascript solutions.
