I Have a asp.net page with textarea. I am getting data from database and putting it in the textarea. I wanted to grow textarea to expand depending upon the text without scrollbars. I could I achieve this in my asp.net page.
View 2 RepliesI'm working with an MVC1.0 web app and I've found a bit of an odd anomaly.
I have a search box on the first page (normal text box) and the input from this is passed through to the ViewData and on to the second page.
On the second page, I render a TextArea with this search input text from the ViewData.
Eg:
[Code]....
The problem is, there is an extra line break in the TextArea, just above the original text.
Stranger still is that if I now submit this page and the view is reloaded (after validation fails) - the original string of text has been trimmed and has no line breaks, but the TextArea now has 2 line breaks above the original text.
This can be repeated - every time the page reloads it has another line break.
It's driving me insane - does anyone have an idea on how to fix this?
FYI, you can check it out yourself - on your mobile phone, browse to [URL], punch something in the search box and hit search. You'll notice one line break added the first time the page loads. Then just hit "Find Best Offer" without entering a budget or selecting a category, and you'll see what I mean about the additional line breaks.
I have a WYSIWYG editor set up using ASP.NET MVC. When I post, everything is fine, however when I post and there is an error when the page comes back and shows the errors, the value in the textbox is messed up (it has become un-HTML Encoded) and for form validation reasons, this is fine. My question is this - how, in the controller (preferably), can I change the value of the text in the textarea? Even if I use a ViewData["fieldname"] and set the asp code to:
<%= Html.TextArea("fieldname", ViewData["fieldname"], new { id = "fieldthing", name = "fieldthing", cols = "80", rows = "10" })%>
It still doesn't work because that ViewData is the default value which, after the post, isn't returned to that value, it stays whatever was typed.
So any thoughts on how to edit this value? I tried passing in a new view, but that didn't work either.

View 5 Repliesthere are a few paragraphs separated by line feeds "
" in a textarea, say
Paragraph1 "
"
Paragraph2 "
"
Paragraph3 "
"
what i want to achieve is to process each paragraph into tag. How do you do that? (Need a server side solution) so it looks like
<p> Paragraph 1 </p>
<p> Paragraph 2 </p>
<p> Paragraph 3 </p>
On top of the complexity, if you have a blockquote there
Paragraph1 "
"
<blockquote> "
"
test
</blockquote> "
"
Paragraph2 "
"
Paragraph3 "
"
should come out to look like
<p> Paragraph 1 </p>
<blockquote>
<p>test</p>
</blockquote>
<p> Paragraph 2 </p>
<p> Paragraph 3 </p>
Ho do I preserve the layout of text in a TextArea control in asp.net ?e.g.

I need to find a way to accurately calculate the byte size of the text inside a particular textarea. I am working in .Net so I have access to those libraries, but I'd prefer a Javascript solution. How many bytes is each character worth? What would be the most efficient way to count and multiply? Or am I missing a better way entirely?
Edit: I'm attempting to determine the download size of a piece of Javascript that has been pasted into a textarea. The closest thing I could find to this is ][URL]. I don't want to just lift their code, especially since I don't fully understand it.

I have an email page that consists of your typical master page/ content area setup. I have a master.css page for the masterpage and I'm linking in another css file for the content area on the page_load event. The page loads correctly but inside the textarea is the css code for everything after the textarea box. I've looked over the the source and can't find any unmatched css tags. Does anyone have a suggestion as to what might cause this?
View 7 RepliesUsing IE6+, what is the maximum amount of text you can POST with a <textarea> before something breaks?
Edit: The answer I'm hoping for is "there's no way you could actually type something meaningful and unmallicious into a textarea and crash Internet Explorer."
I have a html textarea in my form, and when I postback the form, the value of textarea gets lost. I want the value of this textarea to be restored.I know that for restoring the value of textbox, I can directly use value=@Response["TextBoxName"], but this is not valid for text area, so I request you to suggest me a solution.

I have a textarea and i am using a plugin for that textarea. In that plugin there is a function getCode() which will return the value of the textarea. That function will be called like - textarea_id.getCode(); I am using ASP.NET in which i have declared the textarea (runat=server), and the textarea'a id i can get but when i am writing the following code it is not calling the method.
'<%= txtName.ClientID %>'.getCode();
But if i am writing then it is working fine.
ctrl001_txtxName.getCode();
Because the first one is a string and the second one i guess is an object. If so then how to overcome this problem.

Plugin = function(obj)

View 1 RepliesI have a TextArea html helper method I'm calling in a foreach loop. Basically, when I initially load the View it works fine, but when i reload the View and load postback data, the same TextArea throws a NullReferencException and yet the variable I'm using in the TextArea as the name of the TextArea is not null. I've attached a picture below for demonstration:
if it's difficult to see, the blue arrow below is pointing to the variable used to name the TextArea. Again, it works on initial load, but it errors out on postback when the page is reloaded. I'm not sure what's going on.
