[Javascript] coding for the <enter> key

[bill.marriott at agric.nsw.gov.au]

Hi Chris,

I'm using an Informix product called App Page Builder
and I guess this is not strictly a javascript question.

I would be interested to see a example of the full ASP replace statement 
because it may work with Informix as well.

It seems strange to me that the form element can read the format but the 
page can't.

What do you mean by "written directly from the server"? What language 
are you using? With ASP you could use REPLACE on vbCRLF...  Or is 
this stricly through JavaScript where a form is submitted and you are 
parsing 
the QueryString using JavaScript?

Hi Everyone, 

Does anyone know how to get HTML to format an embedded carriage return. 

eg. 1. something 
       2. something else 
       3. something different 

ends up as 

       1. something 
       2. something else 
       3. something different 

if it is loaded from server data  into a text area form element , but if 
it is just written to the page directly from the server it ends up as 

       1. something 2. something else  3. something different 

which is not as pretty 

thanks
