Newline with HTMLEncode in Div and Label

Hi

I have a table column that has multiple lines (\r\n) and html tags in it. I
want to display it in a div and label that html tags can be seen and
newlines should work.
If i use div.innerHTML newlines are lost and html tags doesn't show.
If i use div.innerHTML with replace(Environment.NewLine,"<br>") breaks works
but html tags doesn't show.
If i use div.innerText again newlines and html tags are lost.

What can i do?

ThanksVersus,
The bottom line is that "\r\n" means nothing in HTML - you have to change it
to "<br/>" -- which means you need to pre-process your string with
..Replace("\r\n", "<br/>");

Thanks for answering. Replace(Environment.NewLine,"<br>") already works for
that problem. But i cannot see html tags as regular text. I want them to be
displayed not parsed with htmlparser.

Let me explain again. I have an sql db table with columns that has both
environment.newline(\r\n) and html tags. I want newlines to break lines and
html tags to be displayed at the same time.

I think if you use the <pretag to wrap your code it will honor the CRLF
and show the tags as if they are text within the <pre></pretags.

Hope this helps

Actually, newlines may make a lot of sense when you want your HTML to
be easily understood if you do a view source on the html page ...

That's correct but the problem lies elsewhere.
If you update a <pretag with innerHTML, Internet Explorer will
remove the \n's before it's in the <pretag.

News Column

Hi again,

I was wondering if anyone knew of a tutorial on how to make a news column...where a news post created in the admin panel would be posted on the main page. I'm using asp.net 2.0 and MSSQL 2005

Thanks very much,

Ian

Hi Ian,

You'll probably want a data entry page that saves the information to a database. Then on the presentation page, you'll want to extract that data from the database to display it in some form. On this site, is a wonderful set of tutorials, by Scott Mitchell, that explain how to work with data in ASP.NET. There are several lessons, but if you peruse the list and pick out ones that sound like what you need to do, it could be helpful. Here are the tutorials:
