Re: Sendmail and textarea

This WebDNA talk-list message is from

1998


It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 20853
interpreted = N
texte = To Gil Poulsen:I tried setting the wrap in my textarea to virtual and it didn't make any difference. The text still was on all one line in the email I received. I think the wrap=virtual contols how the text wraps in the textarea box but doesn't affect how the text is formatted once the information is passes to the email application. I have seen discussion here about using a convertchar database to reformat the text but am not sure how this works or how to set it up.I'm not sure what wrap=virtual places in the text, if anything, to indicate that a new line is generated. A carrage return or end of line? Maybe if I new this I could figure out what to convert if I use a database.I have had pretty good luck by setting the wrap to virtual.Help would be appreciated!Richard Kirsner Competitive Edge, Inc.
