A lot of queries raised targeting this issue. ie line breaks within a textarea attribute.
I tried to use str_replace("<br />", "\\n",$text)
within a javascript variable where I got it working within a php code. Unfortunatley had no such luck with the methodology I am using within the javascript code.
The code I am trying to use is as follows:
var markup = "<textarea name='tcaction[]' id='tcaction' rows='3' cols='105' placeholder='Enter Required Actions' required><?php echo str_replace("<br />", "\n",$text) ?></textarea><br>";
The str_replace within the javascript variable is not working. Would you cordially direct me to the right direction?
Thanks for assistance.
Replace this ...
...<?php echo str_replace("<br />", "\n",$text) ?>...
^^
... by this:
...<?php echo str_replace("<br />", "\\n",$text) ?>...
^^^
So PHP sends \\n
(2 chars) and JavaScript interprets it as newline character.
All, for the interest of others the issue has been resolved as follows:
var text = <?php echo json_encode($text); ?>
and then used
text.replace("<br />", "\\n");
it works and no issues of un-escaped new line etc etc.
thanks anyway.
