I have multiline textbox and my user type like
Monday 14 pm
Tuesday 15 pm
Wednesday 16 pm
I want on save button these will go into loop into database like it should not go into one row of sql server database instead it will into 3 rows.
I am trying to add line Break in Multiline textbox when i am displaying data.
This is how i m doing but its not showing line break. I have tried using "/r/n" as well.
txtlog.Text = txtlog.Text & " Creating Objects...<br/>"
txtlog.Text = txtlog.Text & " Objects Created Successfully...<br/>"
I want the output should be like below :
Creating Objects...
Objects Created Successfully...
But it showing like without line break.
I've had an "interesting" request .
1) Is it possible, in a multiline textbox, to automatically break to the next line after 100 characters?
2) If not, is it possible to parse the enter key as entered by the user to break the line in the code behind?
Some additional info:
The person requesting this does not think that the user should use a single line textbox limited to 100 characters and click an "Add Line" button to store that field in a table.
The person requesting this is of the belief that a DEC Alpha-based system that currently does this can be replicated on the web.
I'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.
Is there something fairly simple, even with javascript, to replace a line break in a text area with a <br /> when it gets submitted to a database? Right now I have a button that just will add in the tag to do it, but I'd much rather have it be automated to make the user less hassled to put that in themsevles. That, and it would make things just that much faster.
Even if there was something to put each section in a <p> tag, but that's not entirely necessary, the <br /> seems like it would be the easier method.
I'm using MS SQL server and c# if that makes a difference.

View 2 RepliesI have a multiline textbox (textarea) that I want to verify has a particular string in it. I was trying:
<asp:RegularExpressionValidator runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtTemplate" ValidationExpression="^(.s*)*Content(.s*)*$" Text="content" ErrorMessage="Must contain: Content" />
Using ^(.s*)*$ seems to pass for a textarea. So I tried to sandwich my criteria between two of these. But it seems to lock up both IE and Chrome.
I have a textbox inside edit template and it is binded with the data. Somehow, textbox data starts from the middle instead at the beginning of the box. I can use textarea where it starts from the starting point but I cant bind the data inside the gridview.
View 1 RepliesOn my Asp.Net GridView I am binding a textbox to a field in SQL. Sometimes the content of the textbox is more than 1 line and I
need to show only the LAST line. How can I do that? Here is part of my code...notice that I use Rows=1 on purpose so that I am able to show only 1 line but I need it to scroll all the way down and have it show only the last line of the whole content:
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtBoxComments" runat="server" MaxLength="5000" ReadOnly="true" Rows="1" Text='<%# Eval("Comments") %>'
TextMode="MultiLine" Width="100%" Wrap="true" />
<ItemTemplate>
I have a multiline textbox whose .Text property get saved in an SQL 2008 DB. When I submit the textbox, I loose the returns. How do I handle this?
I've used Enviroment.Newline() to do some html conversion stuff, but I've never ran into this specific problem.
Edit: Nevermind, it was working just fine, but I was replacing " " incorrectly. Stupid mistake. I have to convert the " " to <p> tags. I've done this before, but if anybody wants to answer, I'll mark their answer as correct.
How do I just get the first line of a multiline textbox? Either that or delete everything after "<br/>"? I tried something like this but it doesn't work:
MyTextBox.Text.Replace("<br/> + '%'", "")
In my asp web page, there is a multiline textbox. And upon a button click from the same page I need to delete the last row or line from the multiline textbox. How is that possible.
View 1 RepliesHere's some pseudo-code as to how I'm converting line breaks in a multi-line textbox into the html equivalent for storage into a DB.
Server.HtmlEncode(Trim(TextBox.Text.Replace(Environment.NewLine, "<br />")))
When I trace the variable while debugging I notice that when using Internet Explorer 7, the text is parsed correctly from the text box and <br /> tags are inserted appropriately.
However when the page is ran in Firefox or Chrome, the line breaks are not converted.
I am using Multi-line Textbox through which users will be able to enter data which will be saved on to the SQL Server 2008 database. There is an other process, which reads this data from the table and writes to a text file.
Problem:
If the data entered by users in text box contains <Enter> from keyboard, it is saving to the database with some spaces replacing the <Enter>.
Some how if I read the same data to a text box on webpage, it is being displayed properly.
But, if my second process that reads the data from database and prints to a text file, it is not keeping the text format properly. It is not retaining the <Enter> in the data being printed to text file.
I have a scenario in my application, by saving a text of length 20000 chars without line break in between.When i retrieve the same to an asp.net textbox control my UI is stretching to the length of these 2000 chars in a single line . I have to wrap the text automatically inside text box.
View 1 Replieshow to limit the number of characters per line in a multiline textbox? Any posibility to do this with javascript? I have the users enter a list of names and need to limit each. I hate to use another textbox to add each name. If so, I would then add them to a listbox instead so they could select and remove a name.

View 2 RepliesI have an xml file as shown below. In that the MailBody has contents stored in tabular form. In that table I have a column 'Description' which needs to preserve line breaks and paragraph format if user input is in paragraphs.
At present that column displays data as one whole paragraph even if user enters data with line breaks by Enter key.
[Code]....
So there are a few paragraphs separated by line feeds " " in a textarea, say
Pargraph1 "
"
Pargraph2 "
"
Pagragph3 "
"
what i want to achive is to wrap each paragraphy between html <p></p> tag. How do you do that so it looks like
[Code]....
On top of the complexity, if you have a blockquote at the end
<blockquote> "
"
test"
"
</blockquote>"
"
should come out to look like
<blockquote>
<p>test</p>
</blockquote>
