Converting Linebreaks
When using the textbox multiple datatype in umbraco you might want to convert the linebreaks into html <br> tags. This can be done just by checking a checkbox in the insert umbraco field dialog when inserting a field on your template. Just look for the convert linebreaks checkbox.
In xslt you can also do this by using the umbraco library method umbraco.library.ReplaceLineBreaks(System.String)
So that would like a this:
<xsl:value-of select=”umbraco.library:ReplaceLineBreaks(data [@alias = ‘youralias’])”/>
you live an learn. been using umbraco since 2006 and i didnt know you could do this!!!!
Don’t forget to set the parameter: disable-output-escaping=”yes” on the XSLT-tag as well. Otherwise you will get the break-tags printed in text on the page.
sweet!
