Hi. Sorry about not being clear.
Im creating a TextArea programmatically and rendering the text in there _with_ line breaks. So: ta1.text = "foo\nbar"; When I save that (through some save function) I want to retain the newline and save it to the database. Then when I pull that data back into the same textarea, I want to have the newlines where they were b4. Currently the newlines dont even make it to the save function. How do I keep them? Hope this makes more sense. Kr. Luke. Josh McDonald wrote: > Not sure what you mean? If your server is returning text with line > breaks, they should show up in your textarea without any troubles.
