Formatting textarea

All,

I am sending email confirmation without attachment. I would like to 
format bodytext using textarea.default-value.
Is it any way add line feed character into bodyText text?

example instead of having
Mr Brown, thank you for your order ...
have
Mr Brown,
thank you for your order
...

Jacek

did not get lost. what is in the Style should go into the CSS.
.whtspcpre{
   white-space: pre;
 }
I was just making it easy to test.
you form should work then.
I assume your using textarea so they can change it.
also assume that this is not an email form.

All,

I could be a damn question, but will ask anyway:

EcommerceSetup.bsh seems to be a global setup to run ecommerce.

The first line gets productStore from ... object called >request<.

At which point >request< gets its content?

I have created class in ccs:

from an ofbiz view this should be a class in the CSS.

Re: Formatting textarea

Ok your right.

you must specify 'style="white-space: pre;"', which specifies
pre-formatted text handling as in an HTML <pre> area.

so
http://www.w3schools.com/TAGS/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_textarea
paste in
<textarea cols="80" style="white-space: pre;">
At W3Schools you
will find all the Web-building tutorials you need,
 from basic HTML to advanced XML, SQL, ASP, and PHP.

Re: Formatting textarea

Posted by BJ Freeman <bj...@free-man.net>.
are you following the standard format for generating emails?
if so you can define and html and use html code for a break.
however if you looking for manual way to input in to a text area then
use the unix convention of \n (linefeed) then \r is a carriage return
and will give you a double linefeed.
