Hi,

I have a text-area where users can write a message.

I need to append some information to this message upon completion - which isn't a problem.

The issue I can't seem to sort is inserting some carriage returns so the additional text appears a couple of lines after the user text.

I've tried inserting "\n\r" but this just seems to disappear, any idea?

many thanks

Andy

Hi Andy,

Textarea doesn't support control character or non-printing character (\n or \r). It works with html-code. For example, you can add break line (like \n) with code like this: pre$('#TextareaBox')&#46;append('<br &#47;>');/pre

thanks for this, unfortunately it didn't give the expected results.

However, I've managed to sort it by using the code below:

var message = Tiggzi('messagebox');
var message1 = message + String.fromCharCode(13) + String.fromCharCode(13) + 'message ends here'
Tiggzi('messagebox').val(message1);

This inserts the 2 blank lines I needed.

Many thanks

Andy.
