yeah, could do, but that's not enough. e.g. IE on a Mac it displays the textarea, but IE on the PC displays the soEditor. So I could test to see if it's IE, but I'd need to know the OS too.
this code is happening *before* the form gets submitted, as it's working out what values to insert into the form. it seems the client is mostly going to be using Macs anyway, as far as i can tell (it's a bit of a confused situation), so I could just remove the soEditor altogether.

This only works on IE on certain platforms. On other browser/platform combinations, it displays a textarea. Using Javascript to set the content of the form dynamically. No problems there. Got some coldfusion that is cleaning up the content that gets placed into the soEditor object / textarea. Basically I need to turn CRLF combinations (#Chr(13)##Chr(10)#) into something that both soEditor and the textarea will recognise as being line breaks. If I don't clean up the text at all, it displays nicely in the textarea, but loses the linebreaks on the soEditor. So it's a two part question: I: Is there some way I can turn crlf into something that will display linebreaks / paragraph breaks correctly in both a textarea and soEditor II: Is there any *server-side* way I can detect whether soEditor or a textarea will be displayed. I've already got a good way of working this out in Javascript, but not sure how it could be replicated in coldfusion. I'm not about to pass a url parameter, as the form's way too complicated to start doing that. I suppose a third option would be to just clean up the text in the Javascript...
