<ENTER KEY> Causing issues

[applauz]

Hi There,

 

I have an application that uses a Flash front end.  The user fills out a card.  The variables of that card are stored in an SQL Database and the recipient gets an email with a unique url to retrieve the card.

 

The problem I am faced with ... is that if the user hits their ENTER key while typing their message to create line breaks.. the line breaks are causing the SWFOBJECT Flash Embed to break.

 

The SWFOBJECT embed code looks like this

var flashvars = {

yname: "<?php print "$yname";?>",

yemail: "<?php print "$yemail";?>",

fname: "<?php print "$fname";?>",

femail: "<?php print "$femail";?>",

greeting: "<?php print "$greeting";?>",

message: "<?php print "$message";?>",

fullname:"<?php print "$fullname";?>"

};

 

 

 

The results look like this when data has been filled out

 

<script type="text/javascript">

var params = {

quality: "high",

//scale: "ExactFit",

wmode: "transparent",

menu: "false",

allowfullscreen: "true",

allowscriptaccess: "always",

bgcolor: "#014872"

};

var flashvars = {

yname: "Jonathon",

yemail: "[email protected]",

fname: "TEST",

femail: "[email protected]",

greeting: "TESTING",

message: "Test

Test

Test",

fullname:""

};

 

 

You can see the line breaks where:

 

Test

Test

Test

 

Was typed.

 

 

Any ideas how to fix this ?

If I am understanding your issue, you can just replace the newlines with nothing:

message: "",

I just tried your method...  it didnt do anything at all.  Its still showing the line breaks.

If you are on a windows machine, you should use:

message: "",

Strange... the line breaks are still happening.
