Re: chr(10) AND CFSCRIPT
You meant chr(13) chr(10) for the windows line ending, right? And the 'mac' line ending is only for Mac OS9 and earlier. Mac OSX (since it's *nix based) uses just the line feed. cheers, barneyb On 6/10/05, Jared Rypka-Hauer - CMG, LLC [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: That will work in most browsers, Windows or otherwise, because they all seem to interpret chr(10) as enough for a newline even if the OS demands a cr-lf combination for a valid line break.

Re: chr(10) AND CFSCRIPT
well, that did not work. I keep getting invalid CFML construct. i believe i need to use #chr(10). Here what i am trying to do exactly. I have a shipping address populating a cell in an array. Now i want to have a carriage return after each line in the address in the same array cell. CODE: Q_ShipmentList.EK_CompName[j], a_shipment[3][2] Q_ShipmentList.EK_Attention[j], a_shipment[3][2] Q_ShipmentList.EK_Addr1[j], a_shipment[3][2] Q_ShipmentList.EK_Addr2[j], a_shipment[3][2] Q_ShipmentList.EK_Addr3[j], a_shipment[3][2] Q_ShipmentList.EK_City[j], a_shipment[3][2] Q_ShipmentList.EK_State[j], a_shipment[3][2] Q_ShipmentList.EK_Zip[j],a_shipment[3][2] You meant chr(13) chr(10) for the windows line ending, right? And the 'mac' line ending is only for Mac OS9 and earlier.

chr(10) AND CFSCRIPT
i want to be able to force a carriage return while getting output back within a cfscript block. i have tried several combos, but nothing seems to work. also using PDFLib if anyone is familiar with that as well. ~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:209209 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

Re: chr(10) AND CFSCRIPT
That will work in most browsers, Windows or otherwise, because they all seem to interpret chr(10) as enough for a newline even if the OS demands a cr-lf combination for a valid line break.
