Re: Saving Text Areas with Orders
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 1997
It keeps the original formatting.

texte = Wrap can be virtual or physical, the syntax is as you'd expect: header1=[fieldX]. WebCatalog automatically converts CR/LF's and tabs into soft returns and spaces respectively. Later, if you'd like to display the contents of the header field in a textarea tag (for editing) you would wrap the field tag in the [input] context so the characters that were converted when saved (like CR/LF's and text like ) are converted back. That is:
