Web Forms :: Get Linebreaks From Multiline Textbox Data Rendered Properly?
Feb 1, 2011
On one screen I have the user enter some stuff in a multiline textbox, and then save it to db. On another screen I make an html summary report which includes a column for that multiline textbox data. When the report is rendered, the column with mutiline textbox data doesn't seem to understand the line breaks in the text, and just happily runs on until the end of the column width, wrapping the text wherever it might be at the moment.
When I stop at a breakpoint in visual studio and look at the data with the visualizer, it comes up formatted properly with the line breaks. So I guess it's really just the html rendering that's killing me. So how can I get linebreaks in database text data to render as linebreaks in the generated html report row?
Example of the html generation code I'm using for the column with possible linebreaks (it all takes place within the usual while reader.read(), etc.:
Response.Write("<TD valign='top'><FONT face='Arial' size='1'>" & myDataReader.Item("ExtraDetail") & "</font></TD>")

I'm was saving some text with linebreaks from a multiline textbox into a ms access db using :
.addWithValue("@field", txtMultiline.Text.replace(environment.newline, "<br />")
No problem there, but when I want to display the saved data into a multiline textbox (for editing) i can't get the linebreak to display.
I've tried these option, but nothing seems to work:
- txtMulitline.text = .item("field").tostring.replace("<br />", environment.newline) ' This displays some empty spaces but no new lines
- txtMulitline.text = .item("field").tostring.replace("<br />", vbcrlf) ' same result
- txtMulitline.text = .item("field").tostring.replace("<br />", vbnewline) ' same result
- txtMulitline.text = .item("field").tostring.replace("<br />", "
") ' This display the string like "blabla
blibli" but no new lines
- txtMulitline.text = .item("field").tostring.replace("<br />", "
") ' same result
- txtMulitline.text = .item("field").tostring.replace("<br />", "
") ' same result

I have a set of data is my database. Need to pull the data and display in a textbox which is set to Multiline mode. The problem is i need to display the that is being retrieved from database is a particular format with line breaks.
Ex:
INT/1241/STD3//TestCondition/
Info:<data>
Test Criteria:<data>
Test Results:<data>
Conclusion:<data>
Tested by:<data>
This is the pattern in which i want to display the details in the text box. All Data is retrieved from data base, there is a line break after each line.

My application has a ajax.net popup. There are two mulitline textboxes with two buttons. One moves the names from one box to the empty box and the other puts the name/s back. Where can I find some examples on how to do that? Oh the data source is a database.

I have a formview containing an insert template. One of the fields you can insert is a multiline textbox. When i update or insert, i write the value to an SQL database. The next time i edit the record, everything shows up in the multiline textbox as it was when i inserted it. This includes the newlines(or break rules, or whatever you call it in english) i've entered.
For my itemtemplate, i want to use a label to represent this value. But when i do so, it doesn't use newlines, it just puts the text in one line.
How does the multiline textbox save these 'new lines' to the database? and how can i retrieve them when using a label?

Ok this is a bit weird. If I run this on my machine using IE everything looks fine. If I publish to my server and run using same machine and same browser my multiline textboxes show for a split second correctly then they scroll horizontally and get all messed up? Why are the scrolling horizontally and why do they look fine locally?
.style3
{
margin-bottom:5px;
overflow:hidden;
border:2px solid #666;
outline: none;

Language: C#
Values for multiline textbox in gridview are coming from SQL db "text" type previously entered by user...sometimes a small amount, sometimes a lot. Want to display enough to make it readable without wasting space on the screen. Can't believe this mechanism is not built in but have researched & see I may have to count lines then set the "number of row" property.
Question 1: Should this be done in databound or rowdatabound event?
Question 2: Could someone provide the "row counting" code (in C#)?

On 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>

Added <Body onkeydown = "return(event.keyCode!=13)"> into a VS2008 masterpage. Did this to disable the Enter key from basically doing a button click event. The code works great, however, we use multiline textboxes that were accepting Enter to do a newline in the textbox. Now the multiline textbox does nothing when Enter is pressed. Is there an override that would work on a single form that loads behind the master page? Ref: your Disable Enter key in TextBox to avoid postback in ASP.Net.
