Problem solved! It's not related to a function of Mapserver/Mapscript. Query result are outputted in HTML, this is why carriage return doesn't work. Just use the HTML tag <br> as separator and strings appear in multple lines.
e.g.: if input data is: StringA <br> StringB <br> StringC output would be: StringA StringB StringC I suppose even other HTML tags work normally, so it's possible to add even images or whatsoever in query result! ----- Original Message ----- From: Armin Burger To: toni Cc: pmapper mailing list Sent: Sunday, April 30, 2006 8:36 PM Subject: Re: [Pmapper-users] query result 'new line' character I guess this is a function of Mapserver/Mapscript. pmapper just displays the result from the Mapscript function. armin toni wrote: > Hello, > another problem with pmapper... > (my coordinates: win xp, ms4w v.1.5.0, pmapper 1.2.0, shape files for > layers, mdb external join) > > Query result doesn't display the 'new line' ([ctrl+return] or [return] key) > character: > data stored in the shape dbf file (and in the mdb joined file) use this > char. > The content of a cell is e.g.: > > > stringA > stringB > stringC > > > where after the strings is placed the [return] character (new paragraph), > but pmapper replaces it with a space. > > ----------------------------------------------- > I tried to change the "layer encoding" unsuccesfully. > I tried to press shift-ctrl-return or other substitutions but it's bad > > Any solution? > > Thanks in advance, > toni > > > > _______________________________________________ > Pmapper-users mailing list > Pmapper-users a faunalia.it > http://faunalia.it/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pmapper-users > >
