No, I'm not using modal dialog..
modal dialog is calling by javascript isn't it?
I call the popup window by using SetOpenDialog()

Hi Suzila,

Hi,
The mouse pointer inside the textbox didn't go anywhere..
even I enter for many times..

:D Suzila

suzila,

I asked you earlier that, what happens when you press enter (Return) key in textbox just b'coz, I thought, you might have any button having "Autopostback" property set to true and that is causing your page to post back to server instead of putting a new line character in the textbox.

What I'll suggest you to do an experiment, add a textbox to a fresh new page make multiline property true (don't put any other control over page) and just run it and see whether it works or not, if it does, something is going wrong with your existing page. Thats what I did earlier before responding you.

Hi,
I have a problem . I write in a multiline text box and I use enter (CR/LF). but when i want too put this text that I've wrote and I've put in database into a Label(to put in a page), all the contents of that textbox that i've entered, shows in a single line without enter(CR/LF) in the label. So I can't have the text that is saved in database with enter(CR/LF) in my page.
Do you have a solution for it?

Thank you so much

When you enter text in a multiline it will accept hard returns. Those will get saved to the database. When you emit the saved value to a web form label, those hard returns will be there. (Look in the browser HTML source and you'll see them there.) The problem is that the browser ignores plain hard returns. You need to replace the CRLF (or Environment.Newline character) in your database value with the HTML "<br>" tag.

Hi,

I too have the same problem here but with winforms. The form has a default button and the multiline textbox "AcceptsReturn" property is set to true and on pressing return key no new line is being created. This works fine in some of the machines with english OS but it does not work in some machines with Japanes OS.
Is it related to the version of the OS or Service pack installed ?
Please help me out.
