How to add blank line between two lines of text in webcal event's description? This \n\n doesn't work.
It might help if you would provide a full iCalendar stream but, assuming you encoded them correctly, using "\n" is the only way to express intentional line break. Did you try to display your event using different clients ?

Checked all the similar questions suggested and couldn't find an answer, unfortunately.
Is there a way to send a multi-line message to metamask via web3.eth.personal.sign as the first parameter? (The problem is how to get multiple lines, not how to actually send a message there)
A more eloquent example of my question can be seen in the image attached. There are multiple paragraphs on separate lines: 'Welcome to OpenSea!', 'Click "Sign" to sign in..." etc.
Thanks a lot!
You can either use \n or use instead of '' or "" when you send the message. The option with takes the spacing in the content into consideration (in js).
I when I import a pipe delimited .txt file I receive from a client every once in a while, one of my records will import into the raw table with a line break in the tuple. But when I look at the .txt file I see neither {CR}{LF} or {LF}.
I can't figure out why this is happening. Has anyone else ever experienced this?
I have had similar issues. I ended up stripping out any \n or \r escape characters from string data after it had already come into the data flow using either a derived column or a custom script component. That fixed the problem for me. It helps to enable the data viewer to see what the data looks like as you are debugging.
I have had issues like this before and found that in some cases SSIS could only recognize tabs, linefeeds, & carriage returns using the hexadecimal format:
x0009 - tab
x000A - feed
x000D - return
Try using something like this in your derived column:
(DT_STR,50,1252)TRIM(LOWER(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE( *{your_column}*,"\x0009",""),"\x000A",""),"\x000D","")))
I am using a text area field in Salesforce as a RecipientNote for a Docusign envelope created using a custom button in Salesforce.
The syntax below handles any commas or special characters, but I'm unable to find the correct syntax to preserve any linebreaks in the Program_Exception_Notes__c field.
;RecipientNote~{!JSENCODE(URLENCODE(SUBSTITUTE(Sales_Program_Info__c.Program_Exception_Notes__c,",","_COMMA_")))}
I have tried the following but none worked. Any ideas?
'{!SUBSTITUTE(JSENCODE(URLENCODE(SUBSTITUTE(Sales_Program_Info__c.Program_Exception_Notes__c,",","_COMMA_"))),"%0D%0A","\\n")}'
'{!JSENCODE(URLENCODE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(Sales_Program_Info__c.Program_Exception_Notes__c,"\r\n","\\n"),",","_COMMA_")))}'
I would process your text in a couple of steps in jscript.
first break the text into an array of string lines
escape characters you are looking to correct
then reassemble using the "\n" when you put it back together into a var
Then after all that, URL and JS encode that string variable.
I have a form which accepts varchar2(5000). It is basically a description field. Now when users enter spces after paragraphs, they are all combined into on paragraph, and not multiple as it is entered.
Why? Ex - This is one paragraph.
This is another paragraph.
Here is what is happening -
This is one paragraph.This is another paragraph.
Are you displaying this data on a webpage or via HTML in some way? If so, then white-space is not handled in a straightforward fashion and that might be causing confusion.
Update - it appears that this is being displayed on a webpage.
You need to do one of several things:
Display your text inside a <pre> element on your page
OR
Replace carriage returns in your text with <br/> chars before sending to the webpage
(You might also need to do something with spaces too, if you need to have multiple of them displayed accurately).
This is nothing to do with databases and only to do with how HTML is displayed.
Have a look at this answer Rendering Plaintext as HTML maintaining whitespace – without <pre>
Newbie question here.
I have a web form with a text area and naturally users will enter newline characters also. I am storing this form to a table in the DB. I also have to create a report from this. So I dump the table to text and am trying to parse it. The delimiters for me between multiple records is a new line character. But the new line character in the text area is throwing my script off.
I am sure someone must have run into this before. Can you suggest me ideas as to how to deal with this?
I tried having the text from the text area in double quotes but that will complicate my parsing logic. I was wondering if there is an easier way to deal with this.
I think the simple answer is some form of escaping.
You could do some find/replace in the SQL, such as REPLACE(thetext, '\n', '\\n'), or if the newlines are not important, you could do REPLACE(thetext, '\n', ' ')
Recently ran into the same issue. Your best best is to replace the newline characters during the data dump (or before the data gets to your database) with something else. I opted for something like // or <br> so that I can recover the new lines later.
I was trying to build one forum. The problem was when some user enters HTML. It would get translated when you display his post. And I was not able to move to next line when displaying his post. This might help you. I'm using PHP by the way.
$pattern = array('/</','/>/','/\n/');
$replace = array('<','>','<br>');
$post = preg_replace($pattern,$replace,$post);
