Hi
I am having a Parent window containing a Button(Add-Note),clicking on AddNote buuton,a child window will comes,which has a TEXTAREA and save buuton.
My Problem is "If we enter text it should be stored in the database and should be displayed in the parent window on clicking the save button in the child window.
I should capture the enter key(Carriage return in the child window,text area.

Ex:If I enter
"first line
second line"

in the text area it should be displayed as
"first line
second line"

but it is displaying in the single line like
"firstline secondline"


I need validation in Javascript

Thanks in Advance,

Regards,
Ram.

This could be due to the size of the textareas. Please keep same size for both textareas.

Hi Om Prakash,
Thanks for reply
But I am not displaying in the Text area.
I am just collecting text from text area and storing it into the database and then displaying in the row of the table.

Thanks & Regards,
Ram.

How about counting the amount of characters per-line in the textarea (should be able to get this from the COLS attribute of the textarea), then just put a newline character in there ('\n')?

TEXTAREAs display text, not HTML, so linebreaks are encoded as \n. If you want to show the textarea's value ina div then set the innerText of the div, not the innerHTML.
