I have a richtextbox, correct me if I am using the wrong control, and they are updating a news portal on their website with it's content.
I am allowing them to use hmtl or they can type in whatever they want.
Here's two examples:
With html:
Without html:
My problem is on the carriage returns. If I do not replace the carriage returns in the 'plain' text that they are typing in, it all shows up on one line.
If they don't use html, then I have to replace the carriage returns with <br />
and if they use them, I can't since they are already using breaks.
How do I make it where they can use 'plain' text without html and still make it look right when I insert it into the web page versus using html and not screwing up the looks of it with unnecessary breaks?
This is what I started with, but it only adds more breaks when html is used than necessary:
Private Sub ShowBody_Load(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Dim newbody = (String.Format("<div class=""fulldiv""><fieldset><legend>{0}</legend><div><br/>{1}</div></fieldset></div>", Title, Body)).Replace(vbLf, "<br />")
WebBrowser1.Navigate("about:blank")
WebBrowser1.Document.OpenNew(False)
WebBrowser1.Document.Write(newbody)
WebBrowser1.Refresh()
End Sub
=== UPDATE ===
I tried the and it was close but it is not showing the text just right if they hit enter multiple times.
Here is an example:
So, it's not displaying as the users intends.
This is a fairly common problem. Many applications use a checkbox (or something similar) for the user to check if html is being entered. If it is not checked, then <br>
is added at the end of each line when it is submitted.
try doing this:
"<pre>" & textbox1.text & "</pre>"
why don't you just replace the carriage returns?
