newline being ignored
I have an object with String variable body. In the body is a newline
character then some text. When this is being posted the newline seems to
be being trimmed is there any way to stop this please?

It seems like a bug in JSP tag.
Just to be sure, see if the HTML page is created correctly: if the value
contains a newline, it could be a browser bug; it the newline is not there,
it is possibly a JSP tag bug.
Try to create a small test case (without db), just a post and display in a
text area.
If it does not work, then it's probably a bug.

I am doing the following validation. Middle newlines and newlines at the
end are preserved but newlines at the beginning are vanishing. I can see
the newline at the beginning being returned from the db and hibernate
but they disappear when displayed in the jsp.
<field-validator type="requiredstring">
<param name="trim">false</param>
<message>body is required</message>
</field-validator>
<field-validator type="stringlength">
<param name="minLength">1</param>
<param name="maxLength">512</param>
<message>body length must be between 1 and 512</message>
</field-validator>

Curious. What if the newline is in the middle of the text? does it
behave correctly?

I am using struts 2. I have the following class
<code>
public class test1 {
private String body;
public void setBody(String body){
this.body = body;
}
public String getBody(){
return body;
}
}
</code>
I have a jsp with a textarea whose name is body. The text contained in
body is newline then some text. The form is then posted to an action
that then writes it away to the database. If I then go back to view the
same page the newlline character has been removed. The text is being
trimmed by struts before it is displayed in the textarea.

And what are you using? Struts 1 or Struts 2?
