soEditor isn't a flash based solution, its a DHTML based solution like ActiveEdit. - James -Original Message- From: Roberson, Jeff, Mr (Contractor) ACI [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 06, 2003 3:59 PM To: CF-Talk We can't use FLASH where I work :( -Original Message- From: James Alexander [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 06, 2003 2:35 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Retaining formatting in form fields Don't forget soEditor! http://www.siteobjects.com/pages/soeditor.cfm - James -Original Message- From: Thane Sherrington [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 06, 2003 1:59 PM To: CF-Talk At 01:46 PM 1/6/03 -0500, Roberson, Jeff, Mr (Contractor) ACI wrote: Use Activedit http://www.cfdev.com/activedit/asp.cfm Whoa.

RE: Retaining formatting in form fields
well, that's too bad. But this means you can use either of the below as they are DHTML based, not Flashed.

RE: Retaining formatting in form fields
A la a practice used in the open-source forum discussed here recently, I wonder if including HTML with [ instead of and ] instead of in the form, and then a Replace of [ with and ] with on the backend would help. best, paul At 02:44 PM 1/6/03 -0400, you wrote: At 01:38 PM 1/6/03 -0500, Tony Weeg wrote: text form fields only carry the formatting that is laid out in style sheet info.
