You can use the Visual Basic Carriage Return Line Feed 'vbcrlf', that will add a line break to the text box.
In this example
= "Some text" & " and some more text"
Will display as
Some text and some more text
For one line break it will be:
= "Some text" & vbcrlf & " and some more text"
Which will display as:
Some text
and some more text
Add in more 'vbcrlf' to achieve what you need in formatting the text.

When processing a html form, I need to append some text to a text field before saving it to database. To make it prettier, I need to add a line feed in between:
userText = userText + "<br>" + appendedText;
# save userText in database
The problem is,when fetching the text to render web page, for protection agains XSS, I need to escape text from database before rendering. Thus, <br> in userText is rendered as <br> instead of a line feed.
So I am wondering if there is any other way to produce a line feed other than <br>?
I have tried "\n" "\r\n", and "
", none of them work.
Also, the appended text is in the same element with original text, so css with 'display:block' is out of the question.
use \n and then after fetching the data from the database and prior to outputting it, replace all the \n with <br />.
This way you are still safe for XSS, and you have full control over the output.
If you are using javaScript to get the form values you can easily use "\n" to add a new line to the value you want to save;
var toSave = FormValue + "\n\n" + "extratext";

I created an Access 2013 report using a linked table from Sharepoint. In Sharepoint, the field is defined as "Multiple lines of text, Plain Text", in Access it comes down as "Long Text".
The field contents contains line breaks. In Access the field is "Can Grow=Yes" and "Text Format=Plain Text".
The problem is the report displays the field without the line breaks. Any ideas?
In Access I verified there are chr(10) characters but no chr(13) characters in the field. I tried replacing the chr(10) with chr(10) & chr(13) but that didn't work. It just seems to be ignoring the chr(10) character in the printed output.
I figured out a work around which is to use the 'Rich Text' report field property on the 'Plain Text' field:
Replace chr(10) with <br/> in the field on the report i.e.
=Replace([fieldname],Chr(10),"<br/>")
Change the text box 'Text Format' property from 'Plain Text' to 'Rich Text'
I only want to maintain the paragraph structure of the users input into a textbox. When I retrieve the text from db, all structure is lost. What's easiest way to save text as recorded?
use <pre></pre>
replace spaces " " with You can't repeat multiple spaces " " in HTML, as they will be collapsed into one space.
Also, replace \n with <br />
Hope that helps!
If you want to store HTML text (rich text with BOLD , Italic and etc) you have to use an editor like CKEditor (http://www.ckeditor.com)
I have always used Replace(myString, vbCrLf, "<br/>") to show line breaks when outting something to a page from the database (retaining line breaks). I am now using a DetailsView that has a textarea as one of the fields and uses a LinqDataSource as its datasource. I want to allow users to type line breaks in the textarea and display them on a page (replaced with <br/>'s to show breaks in the HTML). Linq seems to be replacing the line breaks with something else that is now causing the Replace statement to not find the breaks, therefor not inserting the html <br/>. When loading the value from the database to a textarea the line breaks are still there though. I have tried replacing the following with <br> but none of it works.
vbCrLf
vbNewLine
Environment.NewLine
...none of those work... what do I need to find/replace with <br> to show breaks?
TextArea uses different newline characters depending on the browser:
Internet Explorer: \r\n
FireFox: \n
It has also been suggested that \r is used in some cases, although, I haven't come across those cases.
Carriage return is encoded as %0D and Line feed as %0A. So if your text is HTML encoded (as it should be), then you need to replace %0D and/or %0A [depending on your environment] with your <br />
Here is a full discussion on the topic http://www.highdots.com/forums/html/standard-newline-character-264611.html.
Look at the string as a byte array, what values are the line breaks? There are only so many options here, 10, 13, both, none?
This works great for me:
string Output = HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(DirtyText); // HTML Encode it first for safety..
return Output.Replace("\n", "<br />"); // Now replace New Lines with HTML BRs
You end up with a safe encoded output, but also nicely formatted line spacing exactly as entered by the user into a standard textarea.
How can i add a line break to the text area in a html page?
i use VB.net for server side coding.
If it's not vb you can use
(ascii codes for cr,lf)
Add a linefeed ("\n") to the output:
<textarea>Hello
Bybye</textarea>
Will have a newline in it.
You could use \r\n, or System.Environment.NewLine.
If you're inserting text from a database or such (which one usually do), convert all "<br />"'s to &vbCrLf. Works great for me :)
In a text area, as in the form input, then just a normal line break will work:
<textarea>
This is a text area
line breaks are automatic
</textarea>
If you're talking about normal text on the page, the <br /> (or just <br> if using plain 'ole HTML4) is a line break.
However, I'd say that you often don't actually want a line break. Usually, your text is seperated into paragraphs:
<p>
This is some text
</p>
<p>
This is some more
</p>
Which is much better because it gives a clue as to how your text is structured to machines that read it. Machines that read it include screen readers for the partially sighted or blind, seperating text into paragraphs gives it a chance of being presented correctly to these users.
I believe this will work:
TextArea.Text = "Line 1" & vbCrLf & "Line 2"
System.Environment.NewLine could be used in place of vbCrLf if you wanted to be a little less VB6 about it.
Escape sequences like "\n" work fine ! even with text area! I passed a java string with the "\n" to a html textarea and it worked fine as it works on consoles for java!
Here is my method made with pure PHP and CSS :
/** PHP code */
<?php
$string = "the string with linebreaks";
$string = strtr($string,array("."=>".\r\r",":"=>" : \r","-"=>"\r - "));
?>
And the CSS :
.your_textarea_class {
style='white-space:pre-wrap';
}
You can do the same with regex (I'm learning how to build regex with pregreplace using an associative array, seems to be better for adding the \n\r which makes the breaks display).
