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.
