Carriage return in feed item description?

As the title says, is it possible to use carriage returns in a podcast feed item description? I'd like my description to list the show topics... something like:
Show topics:
1. Topic 1
2. Topic 2
Possible? I'm currently using Podcast Maker to generate my feeds. Does that make it any easier or more difficult?

You can just put a newline character inside the description field and iTunes will show the newline in the Podcast Information Panel (click the "i" button for the episode to see this panel).
You shouldn't just put a <BR> tag in there though. If you want to put any kind of html tag in the description field, you must either escape them with a < and > tags or
with a <![CDATA[ ]]>.
So some field results I found out through experimentation with iTunes:
First what works:
- Newline characters work.
- <BR> works.
- <![CDATA[line 1<BR>line 2]]> works too.
What doesn't work:
- <BR>
- <BR/> and its escaped forms such as <BR/>
I'm not sure how other podcast clients will treat the newline character though.

Sure, sending a BEL character to the console rings the bell, but that has nothing to do with Java. Anyway, I think he meant Java doesn't support the \a escape sequence in string and char literals.

How do we remove Carriage Return (line feed) inserted in FCC files

Hi Experts,
The file that we generate has a carriage return at the end.
Is there any way in which we can remove this carriage return (line feed) from the file?
The FCC parameters used at our end are as below:
structure.filedNames:
structure.fieldFixedLengths:
structure.fixedLengthTooShortHandling: Cut
Kindly tell us a solution ASAP.
Thanks & Regards
Dhwani

Dear All,
Let me elaborate on my query
Consider that the files output looks like below:
12 34 45 545 5454 UL
23 33 43 434 4545 FG
45 44 44 586 6535 GM
Now there is an extra line(Carriage Return) getting inserted after the last line 45 44 44 586 6535 GM which is not required at our end.
The cursor of the file instead of stopping on the last character M, points to the next line.
Can you please suggest how to remove this extra line from the files.
I dont understan how will remove context help in this case.
Regards

XI: Remove Carriage Return +Line Feed at end of XML

Hi All,
Scenario
Currently, we have a JMS --> XI --> IDOC scenario. The Sender Service always sends a CRLF (Carriage Return & Line Feed+) without fail at the end of each xml file once this non-sap system finishes its transaction.
Example
<STARTOFXML>
Data------
</ENDOFXML>CR+LF
Question
Is it possible to remove this from XI JMS Sender Adapter? From the receiver Service (JMS) this is possible.
Cheers!
Sulaiman

Why do you want to remove this? Does this lead to errors?
Regards
Stefan

Carriage Returns, Line Feeds, and Tabs in Text Area

I am having users copy and paste data from an Excel spreadsheet into a textarea on a BSP page. When they submit this, since there are tabs and line feeds in the data, the BSP does not recognize the data. The value in the field comes through as blank. When I manually type something into this field, with out any carriage returns, tabs, etc., the value does not come through as blank? Does anybody know how to get around this?

HI
Iam uploading the data from application server(AL11) to other server.
In the GLPCA-SGTXT(Table) iam having some text like 'This is good ##'.i was downloded some other data with this text('This is good ##') by using report program in to aplicationserver(AL11) and from there iam uploading that data into other server.
But here the problem is in the UNIX, it was showing some problem.
That is actually it need to show the format like:
001 256 786 This is good## 459786
But here it was showing like:
001 256 786 This is good^M
459786
So here '459786' is coming to next line. But i need this '459786' also in the same line.
I am not sure if it is possible to remove CR and LF's using the code the program is written in, but that is what we need to do. In Unix ^M is the CR (Carriage return), but I am not sure what LF is?

Carriage Returns & Line Feeds in XML documents

Does anyone know why the PL/SQL XML parser will NOT work with Carriage Returns (0x0D) within the XML document?
Currently I'm having to strip them out, leaving just the Line Feed (0x0A).
I only realised this after looking at the family.xml example document.

How to insert a carriage return/line feed in a TextEdit without using wrap

Hi,
The string that I want to pass to the textedit is
"Order Notes : bla bla bla
Shipping notes : bla bla bla"
The length of Order notes and shipping notes can vary.
I am using wrapping. But I need to insert a line feed just before Shipping Notes so it comes on a different line inside the textedit box.
How do I achieve this?
Thanks in advance,
Sachin

Good thinking, Craig
I didn't think of this large textarea being present there, just waiting for a question like this ...
To sum it up for the lazy ones (cause looking at the examples is always worth it, so go do as Craig told ya g!):
CONCATENATE
`Order Notes : bla bla bla`
`Shipping notes : bla bla bla`
INTO text SEPARATED BY cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf.

Need help on carriage return / line feed...

Hi,
I have a variable defined for a new line, e.g. <CFSET
NewLine = "#chr(13)##chr(10)#">, that I use as a break between
lines of text within CFMAIL.
<CFSET Message = NewLine & "Product Name: " &
Trim(GetProduct.ProductName) & NewLine>
<CFSET Message = Message & "Product Description: "
& Trim(GetProduct.ProductDesc) & NewLine>
<CFSET Message = Message & "Product Color: " &
Trim(GetProduct.ProductColor) & NewLine>
<CFMAIL FROM="[email protected]"
TO="[email protected]" SUBJECT="Product
Info">#Message#</CFMAIL>
If the email is sent to and open up in Microsoft Outlook
account (mailbox), the "Product Description" line of text would
stay on the same line as the Product Name (when
LEN(GetProduct.ProductName) > 50). In other words, the NewLine
variable is not doing the break. The code works with yahoo or
hotmail account though.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

The trick is to add 3 blank spaces (" " ) at the end of each
line but before the break (NewLine) such as these:
<CFSET NewLine = "#chr(13)##chr(10)#">
<CFSET Message = NewLine & "Product Name: " &
Trim(GetProduct.ProductName) & " " & NewLine>
<CFSET Message = Message & "Product Description: "
& Trim(GetProduct.ProductDesc) & " " & NewLine>
<CFSET Message = Message & "Product Color: " &
Trim(GetProduct.ProductColor) & NewLine>
<CFMAIL FROM="[email protected]"
TO="[email protected]" SUBJECT="Product
Info">#Message#</CFMAIL>

How to insert a Carriage Return + Line Feed inside a TextView UI element ?

Hello All,
Does anyone know how can I achieve the above scenario ? I have a string variable that collects and appeneds text messages from various BAPI calls. At the end of the process, the contents of this variable will be mapped to a textview. Problem is, the length of the string collected is way too long and hence not very readable. I am not able to find a way to introduce a CRLF after each message is read and appended. Can anyone advise ? Thank you.

Hi Renjith,
So far I manage to get find a walk-around to the problem by using the TextEdit as what you have suggested. This works fine... till when you try to print it out. As you see, during printing, I need to remove the vertical scrollbar and ensure that all the text are properly displayed and I do not see any visibleFooter = false option (similar to that of a table) available to the TextEdit.
If anyone has any suggestions or a more feasible walk around that allows me to print the entire contents in the TextEdit, that will be greatly appreciated

Textarea has double carriage returns

I have some xml that looks similar to this
<events>
<event>
<title> Event Title</title>
<description>This is the event description
When I have line breaks, like this
the text area will show 2, everywhere
that I only have one.
</description>
</event>
</events>
I have even tried removing the tabs, so that the only extra
characters are CR LF , but I always see extra carriage returns in
my textarea.
Ayone know what is causing this ?

* The TextArea control uses UNIX-style line endings, which
means that text data containing Windows-style carriage-return
line-feed (that is, \r\n) formatting for new lines contain extra
line breaks. You can use String.replace() with a regular expression
to convert the text to UNIX-style line endings, as the following
example shows:
private static const windowsCRLF:RegExp = /\r\n/gm;
myTextString = myTextString.replace(windowsCRLF, "\n");

Textarea formatting for carriage returns

Hi all,
I've created a websheet that includes a textarea column and have found that while any text entered in edit mode displays a carriage return, as soon as the data has been entered and the field returns to read-only mode the carriage returns are not retained . . . all of the content is displayed in one continuous string. Is there a way to accomplish this?
Note: Using APEX v4
Thanks.

Receiver File channel for XML files: with carriage return

Hi all,
we are using a receiver FILE channel to generate an XML file that is sent to an external partner.
The XML file looks good in a parser (IExplorer). But in fact there are not carriage return / line feeds between the XML tags
of the XML payload in the file.
Our partner now requires the XML file in a more vertical structure which means: for every tag a separate line (like it is displayed in a parser)
Does anybody know a more general way to convert to a vertical XML structure (so with carriage return line feed).
There is one entry in the SDN dealing with this topic but suggesting using an UDF. I think this is a very specific way.
I don't think it is a good way to change/enhance the message mapping just because of a general formating change.
Is it better to use an XSLT mapping as a second step in the interface mapping or a JAVA adapter module to convert ?
any experiences? suggestions? examples?
Thank you very much
best regards
Hans
examples:
original by XI receiver FILE adapter
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<MT_batchStatus><type>BS</type><header><message><messageSender>SENDER</messageSender><messageDate>20090723143720</messageDate> ... and so on
required:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<MT_batchStatus>

<header>
<message>
<messageSender>SENDER</messageSender>

... and so on

In such a case, the best is to write an generic XSLT or Java mapping that will attempt to do the pretty printing/formatting of the xml.
The advantage of a generic one is that you can reuse the same class/jar for many other scenarios.
so the flow will be as below in your interface mapping;
1. your specific source to target mapping
2. the generic formatting class

Carriage Returns and Tabs in XML element

I have a number of carriage returns and tabs within an xml element. When I take that element I would like it to transform to html in which I am then displaying within a JEditorPane. However, when I do this it is one long string. I have tried the xml:space="preserve" within that element and this still is not working.
Here is part of the xml with the carriage return line feeds. The element that I am talking about is called pseudocode. You can see it is displayed correctly below.
Design Document XML : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?><design-doc><title-page><title>Testing Document</title><class-prepared-for>Lloyd</class-prepared-for><authors>Ben Garbers</authors><date-created>September 23, 2004</date-created></title-page><introduction text="This is the introduction.

if (player =null)
     NullPlayerException;
          if (NOT (isPlayerNameExist(player)))
               throw PlayerNameNotExistException;
          /* Ensure player name exist in the team already*/
          i ? 1;
          while (i <= length(mPlayers)) {
               if (mPlayers.mPlayerName != playerName)
                    throw PlayerNameNotExistInTeamException;
this.mPlayers ? this.mPlayers - player;</pseudocode>
However, when I do the transformation I get the following with the pseudocode:
/* Ensure that player name exist in the system*/if (player =null)     NullPlayerException;          if (NOT (isPlayerNameExist(player)))               throw PlayerNameNotExistException;          /* Ensure player name exist in the team already*/          i ? 1;          while (i <= length(mPlayers)) {               if (mPlayers[i].mPlayerName != playerName)                    throw PlayerNameNotExistInTeamException;}this.mPlayers ? this.mPlayers - player;
It looks like it adds some spaces but no carriage returns or line feeds.
My transformation code is the following:
     public ParseFile(String xmlString) {
          try {
          //Here we will load the correct style sheet for the message
          //that will be formatted.
          String urlString = "DesignDocument.xsl";
          URL url = this.getClass().getResource(urlString);
          System.out.println("URL to style sheet = " + url.toString());
          String styleSheetName = url.getFile();
          System.out.println("Style sheet name : " + styleSheetName);
          InputStream styleSheetInputStream = this.getClass().getResourceAsStream(urlString);
          //We will than load our SAXParerFactory and parse the message.
          SAXParserFactory SPFactory = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
          SPFactory.setValidating(true);
          SAXParser sp = SPFactory.newSAXParser();
          XMLReader sax2parser = sp.getXMLReader();
          //NO Validation done on for this because we do NOT have a DTD.
          sax2parser.setFeature(
               "http://xml.org/sax/features/validation",
               false);
          sax2parser.setContentHandler(new FileContentHandler());
          //we create a character array of the length of the xml message String
          char[] messageCharacterArray =
               new char[xmlString.length()];
          // we then put the xml string into the character array.
          messageCharacterArray = xmlString.toCharArray();
          // after this ew end up creating a CharArrayReader that will be used by the Sax
          // parser to parse the xml.
          CharArrayReader xmlCharArrayReader =
               new CharArrayReader(messageCharacterArray);
          // we put the xml character array within the Input Source which will then be parsed
          // by the Sax2 parser.
          InputSource in = new InputSource(xmlCharArrayReader);
          // Use a Transformer for outputting the message into our formatted xml using
          // the stylesheet defined up in a messages own sxl stylesheet file.
          TransformerFactory tFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
          tFactory.setURIResolver(new BasicURIResolver());
          StreamSource stylesource = new StreamSource(styleSheetInputStream);
          Transformer transformer = tFactory.newTransformer(stylesource);
//          transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.INDENT, "yes");
//          transformer.setOutputProperty("{http://xml.apache.org/xslt}indent-amount", "2");
//          Properties properties = new Properties();

//          transformer.setOutputProperties(properties);
          // We will use a ByteArrayOutputStream to put our transformed xml.
          ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
          StreamResult result = new StreamResult(bos);
          SAXSource source = new SAXSource(in);
          transformer.transform(source, result);
          String s = bos.toString();
          StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
          //This will make sure the Version Line is not shown.
          BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new StringReader(s));
          String line = "";
          while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
                    sb.append(line);
          bos.close();
          br.close();
          formattedXmlString = sb.toString();
          System.out.println("--------------------------------");
          System.out.println(formattedXmlString);
          System.out.println("--------------------------------");
          } catch (Exception e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
I have been searching and trying to figure this out forever. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Bottom line is that I want carriage returns and tabs to work when transferring from the xml to xsl.

I get the following line when adding the <pre> tags.
/* Ensure that player name exist in the system*/if (player =null)     NullPlayerException;          if (NOT (isPlayerNameExist(player)))               throw PlayerNameNotExistException;          /* Ensure player name exist in the team already*/          i ? 1;          while (i <= length(mPlayers)) {               if (mPlayers[i].mPlayerName != playerName)                    throw PlayerNameNotExistInTeamException;}this.mPlayers ? this.mPlayers - player;
On the screen this is shown on 1 line. It looks like the tabs are working correctly. However, the carriage return, line feeds do not seem to be working. The xml that is pushed into the transformation has the carriage returns and line feeds and is formatted correctly. There has to be something happening when the xsl takes the xml String. When I add <BR></BR> within the xml that doesn't seem to work either.
I am really sumpted. If you could help DrClap I would really be appreciated.

Remove carriage returns from a field in an oracle table

I have a field that is defined as a LONG in my oracle table; the data contained in this field has carriage returns/line feeds (it's free form text); as i'm selecting data from this field, i need the carriage returns removed so that the data from this field all appears on one line.
I tried using the TRANSLATE function to convert the carriage returns to something else, but that doesn't work.
Example:
Select comment from Notes:

called applicant to confirm app
this needs to be extracted as: "the applicant called for an appointment; an exam was scheduled for 4/1/05 at 9am; called applicant to confirm app"
How can i do this? Can the decode function be used to remove the carriage returns in this field?

Sql Loader and carriage returns

I am currently trying to use sql loader to load data from flat files that was extracted from sybase using bcp and delimited with pipes. There are text and varchar columns that contain carriage return line feeds. I want to preserve these, but I can not load them into Oracle 8.05 using sql loader as it interprets them as end of record indicators. Does anyone have a way to solve this problem? Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Jignesh

External tables are accessible from SQL, which generally simplifies life if the data files are physically located on the database server since you don't have to coordinate a call to an external SQL*Loader script with other PL/SQL processing. Under the covers, external tables are normally just invoking SQL*Loader.
SQL*Loader is more appropriate if the data files are on a different server or if it is easier to call an executable rather than calling PL/SQL (i.e. if you have a batch file that runs on a server other than the database server that wants to FTP a data file from a FTP server and then load the data into Oracle).
