Hi,
I'd like some help on this - i have a textarea field, where the user can enter text. The line breaks (\n\r) has to act as real line breaks. So, i've successfully replaced the breaks with the <br /> tag, however, here's the problem - when the user edits these fields again, they appear as <br /> tags in the text field also. How do i nicely replace those tags back in the textarea line break style? Replacing <br /> with \n or \r didn't work.
Thanks

You have power over edit code right? Do just the opposite, before populating the Textarea, just replace breaks with line breaks
