Text Area Box Input

Hello,

I am just curious if this would be an easy fix or not. I have always dealt with this issue since running AbleCommerce.

I use a template with a Text Area Box on my site so that my customers can enter personalization text.
Well, unfortunately, it does not display sentence breaks (enter key) either on the screen through the checkout process, in the admin upon completion of the order, or on the confirmation emails.

For example, if the customer enters

Happy Birthday
04-14-2010

It will display it all on one line like this
Happy Birthday 04-14-2010

You can see where this can be a problem because I have no idea how they want the text formatted since it doesn't retain the [enter] key input.

Do you have any suggestions or fix for this?
Thank you!

Instead of text area box makes use of simple text box with input mode MultiLine.

Something like this will help in that situation....

Code: Select all

<asp:TextBox ID="txt_Comment" runat="server" Text="" Width="300" TextMode="MultiLine" Rows="5"></asp:TextBox>
