At present that column displays data as one whole paragraph even if user enters data with line breaks by Enter key.

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.
This stems from a recent similiar issue: I have since add edit capabilities.My access db is made up of imported records from recipes. In the memo fields are paragraphs users have typed replete with ingredients listed in succession (1 per line) then a normal paragraph follows. When in editmode(multi line textbox), suddenly in each line ends with <br>. How to fix this? I want to preserve the line breaks od course.

I insert a text box, change the parameters to multi line and then pass the string to sql. Users insert comments etc, using line breaks, however because I just pass this as a string the line breaks are not there when they view the text box after input. Example: Here is a well formatted comment. as I typed in the text box today. Inserted in to sql as a string, returns this on select:

Here'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 have a web form in which anyone can fill out the information and i recieve the information.
<asp:TextBox ID="Body" runat="server" Columns="55" Height="101px" Rows="30" TextMode="MultiLine"

I have a Placeholder control on Employee Main Menu. Several SQL Data sources are run at page load in order to notify employees that something is due. Each "something is due" message is loaded into a unique label. Therefore the Placeholder could have several labels in them. For clarity's sake I'd like them separated by line breaks. However I understand from reading a previous forum item that "< /br>" are ignored. How can I embed a line break when PlaceHolder_Msg.Controls.Count > 1

View 7 RepliesOne column in my GridView has the format 1-2345 (one digit followed by a dash followed by four digits. Normally, everything looks OK, but sometimes the other data in my GriView will expand to two or more "lines" in the same row of data. Unfortunately this causes my cell to look like the following:
1-
2345
This looks really really awful and I need to fix it. You know how in HTML there is the non-breaking space symbol? Well I want a non-breaking dash symbol.
I have a page with is basically a few Gridviews that I want to email to some users. The Gridviews are connected to sqldatacontrols. I create the select statements in the code behind. This all works fine.
To email the page I read the page into a streamreader and then creates an email and sends it. So when I get the email the Gridviews show no data.
I stepped through my code and found that the issue is with a variable. The Select statement has a few parameters one of which comes from a profile variable. When the page is read the profile variable is empty. I tried it as a session variable and that fails as well so my question is if I cannot use profile variables or session variables what other way is there to save this data?
In VB I can place module level variables so that say when a form loaded and I wanted to save a variable I would load the module variable which made it available to any form in the project but I assume that I cannot do the same in VB.net asp.Net? On the first page load the variable is available I just have to figure out a way to save it to pull out again when the page posts back.
I have a problem with my XML that I am trying to display on my ASP.NET page. What I would like to do is display it on a multi-line so I have an XML file that looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="News.xslt" ?>
<newslist>
<news>
<date>20th June 2010</date>
<detail>Detail line 1.
[Code]....
When it displays the first detail line everything is on the same line. I've done some digging about and I have tried the following:
xml:space="preserve" in the XSLT file in the XML file<br />
I've even tried leaving it as it is.
I am using Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2010. The control I am using is the XML control under the standard tab, and the language I am using is C#.
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 want to read the contents of a remote folder(s) but i only know the date part of the folder name, the other part of the folder name is a timestamp that is different everytime.

<div><%# Eval("QualificationDescription") %></div>

On aspx page I have asp:textbox multilined, where I type data. When I assign TextBox1.text to a string i get something like this:
"line1
line2
line3"
But if I try to set it back to literal, I get:
line1 line2 line3
(without the line barkes)
How to solve it? Is the only way to replace the with <br />?
A note: If I store the in put in database (sqlserver), and open the table in sql management studio -> edit rows-> I see string line1line2line3 (all together), but if try to copy to clipboard this content (Ctrl+C) only line1 is copied! Why? Also, If i bind this data to a repeater, and Eval("myfield") to repeater I get the line brake!

Is there any way to allow page breaks to be used in a multi-line textbox control. I would like the text below to be inserted into my database, so when displayed in a label its not all in one paragraph. Ex:
some text to be inserted in <br/>
some more text to be inserted in <br/>
I am currently working on a site that reades from several fields in a database to present the information on the site. One of the fields containes several paragraphs of data and I am having trouble displaying it correctly on the site.
The database holds the text in a plain text format (no html) the requirements are such that the website should be able to display this same text, properly formatted, without having to convert it to html code. Thus far I have setup a <p> tag with an ID in the markup like so:
Code:
<p id="body" runat="server"></p>
The problem I am having is:
1) line breaks are not appearing (I only get a solid paragraph)
2) the ' marks are not showing up.
Here is my code behind
Code:
Dim lblBody As HtmlContainerControl = CType(editplaceholder.FindControl("body"), HtmlContainerControl)
lblBody.InnerText = NullTest(dsarticle.Tables("selectedArticle").Rows(currentrow).Item("Article_body"))
I am sure my problem is that I am feeding plain text but I am not sure of the way around this. Do I need another html element? Is there somewhere I need to convert the text?
