Dreamweaver moves my carriage returns?

Dreamweaver seems to be moving my carriage returns. When I put paragraph text inside a span, I usually put a carriage return (i.e. hit "Enter") before and after the span tags so that they are easy to see/find in the file, and are aligned. If I open up the file in a text editor, it appears as I typed it, but in Dreamweaver the carriage return displays in a different place than where I put it. And word wrap is not on.
Example, as typed and saved:
text text text text text text text text text text
This is an example
text text text text text text text text text text
As displayed in Dreamweaver the next time I open the file:
text text text text text text text text text text This
is an exampletext text text text text text text text text text
In DW I will go back in and "fix" everything, only to have to messed up again the next time I open the file.
Can anyone help with this? Thanks.

Please explain me how I can use Form feed(\f) and Carriage return(\r)

what is Form feed(\f) and Carriage return(\r)?
Please explain to me.
Thank you.

These control characters aren't used much these days except that if you example a Windows or MSDOS text file in a binary editor you'll find each line ends with "\r\n". However when reading or writing text through classes these carriage returns will be added and removed automatically so your program doesn't see them.
The controlls date back to teletype machines which operated rather like typewriters. Cariage return, as it's name implied, caused the print head to move back to the start of the line, line feed advanced a line (without, necessarilly, returning the carriage) and formfeed skipped to the next page.
Newline on these machines was always "return, linefeed" because executing the carriage return on these machine could take too long. The early machines had only a single character buffer so that they had to executed the characters as quickly as they arrived. So doing the linefeed after the carriage return gave the carriage more time to return. On some teletypes if you did "linefeed, return" then the first character of the new line would often be printed somewhere in the middle of the line.
This is the origin of the MSDOS/Windows end of line sequence.
Many printers will still respect formfeed if printing is direct. Some will take carriage return without linefeed to allow you to start again overprinting the same line.
However printing, these days, is seldom direct but done in bitmap form.

Problem with "carriage Return" or "Line Feed" in a table

Hello,
I need help with the function Zeichen(), so called it in german, I'm not sure if it is char() in english.
In Pages Version 4.0.1 (746) I've created a table in Pages with this function to make an "carriage Return" in a cell.
Here an example: { ="Hello" & Zeichen(10) & "World" }, in the cell is now:
| Hello |
| World |
But in Pages Version 4.0.3 (766) this function ZEICHEN() not allow the number 10 and other till 32 (I allready read the manual and understand this problem).
Anybody an idea to make a "Carriage Return" or "Line feed" in a formular, in a cell, in a table, in Pages?
Thanks

Your workaround will not be possible in my table, because there is no empty cell in the table, but I think it is also a good help too.
*In fact I forgot that you are using a table in Pages.*
Remaining on my first idea, In Numbers we may achieve the same goal using an auxiliary table with a single cell containing the needed line break.
If this table is named "LineBreak",
the formula will be:
="Hello"&LineBreak :: $A$1&"World"
*In Pages, here is my workaround:*
Enter the cell
type a§b
don't type the character § but ctrl + return.
The cell will contain
a
b
with the arrow, move before the a
type =B2&"
delete the original a
move to the right
delete the original b
type "&C7

Help needed with Carriage Return in Unicode system

Hi Experts,
we have an issue with one of our programs regarding the carriage return that is used when creating a csv file. This issue has only came about because of the recent upgrade to ECC6.
The main change to the program was the redefinition of the line feed variable.
Existing statement was --> DATA: v_lf TYPE x VALUE '0D'.
This was then replaced with
New statement --> DATA: v_lf type c VALUE cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf.
Since this change has been implemented, the csv file that is created and sent on as an attachment via the function SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 is now not displayed correctly.
When looking at the attachment in trn SOST, a message is also displayed saying the file is not in a recognizable format when selecting the file to view.
The hex value for cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf is 000D000A and this seems to be causing the issue.
I've also tried using Function FI_DME_CHARATERS as I only really want to use the CR. However, the hex value for this is 000D and not 0D.
Is there any way of converting this to have a hex value of 0D?
Thanks in advance,
Chris

Carriage return in TextArea Flash component in Director 11

Hello.
I have a very big problem now
Neither embedded Flash movies with textareas or standard flashcomponent TextArea from Director tool pallete do not react on keyboard button "Enter" pressings. There is no carriage return after ENTER button is pressed. The same with End and Home buttons!!
Please help with any advise.
Is that a common bug?
See attached test.dir file. Try to type something in both textareas and then press ENTER button on keyboard. You should realize then what I'm crying about(((
Alexey

I too struggled with this issue. If you're looking for a solution still I have written one. Used the attached script in your Flash document, I spent a few days going back and forth between Director and Flash to figure this one out. Basically what I do is attach a key listener to the movieclip containing the textfield object that on keyDown gets the currently focused textField (this way it will work with multiple textField objects). After that it determines if the enter key is hit and if it is inserts a "/n" break at the selection starting point. The only issue is if you select a whole word in the textField and hit enter a break will be placed at the beginning of the highlighted word and that word will not be deleted. Hopefully this helps.

// BY / contempt.productions inc. 10.30.09
// Director 11.5 fix for bug where dynamic textfields don't register ENTER or RETURN key in Flash sprites
// Solution involves inserting a \n carriage return wherever cursor insertion point starts.
// In Flash this adds 2 carriage returns for every hit of the enter/return key
// In Director 11.5 it adds 1 carriage return
// Change "body_txt" to represent the dynamic textField object this script is referencing

Serious Bug - Carriage Returns in Caption field

LR for Windows does not handle Carriage Returns/Line Feeds correctly in the metadata Caption field.
Windows Vista SP1, 32-bit
Adobe Lightroom 2.4
Library Module, Grid View
Initial settings:
LR Menu bar > Edit > Catalog Settings... > Metadata tab > Editing
uncheck Offer suggestions from recently entered values
uncheck Automatically write changes into XMP
LR Menu bar > View > View options... > Grid View tab > Cell Icons
check Unsaved Metadata
Metadata panel: choose the Default Metadata Set.
Import a JPG file into LR which contains no IPTC metadata.
LR Menu bar > File > Import Photos from disk... > Choose the JPG file
In the Import Photos dialog box, Information to Apply:
Develop Settings: None
Metadata: None
Keywords: None
Click Import.
Click thumbnail of the JPG file which was Imported.
In the Metadata panel click Caption field.
Type "Word1" in the Caption field and press Return/Enter key.
The Caption field loses focus.
The Caption field should not lose focus when the Return/Enter key is pressed.
Click the Caption field and press the Delete key to remove "Word1" from the field.
In the Caption field type "Word1" and press Ctrl+Return/Enter key.
As expected, the cursor moves to the line below "Word1" and the Caption field remains in focus.
Type "Word2" and press Ctrl+Return/Enter key.
As expected, the cursor moves to the line below "Word2" and the Caption field remains in focus.
Click the JPG thumbnail and notice a down-arrow icon appears on the thumbnail indicating that the metadata for this JPG has been changed in the LR catalog and that it does not match the IPTC metadata that is embedded in the JPG file on the hard disk. Also notice in the Metadata panel, Metadata Status is "Has been changed".
Click the down-arrow on the JPG thumbnail.
See the dialog box that pops up saying "The metadata for this photo has been changed in Lightroom. Save the changes to disk?"
Click Save.
Notice on the JPG thumbnail, the down-arrow icon remains visible and does not disappear as it should if the JPG's metadata in the LR catalog and the metadata embedded in the JPG file on the hard disk were the same.
Also notice in the Metadata panel, Metadata Status is "Has been changed".
Click LR Menu bar > Edit > Catalog Settings... > Metadata tab > Editing
check Automatically write changes into XMP
Click OK.
Notice on the JPG thumbnail, the down-arrow icon blinks rapidly. Also notice in the Metadata panel that "Metadata Status: Has been changed" blinks rapidly.
Click LR Menu bar > Edit > Catalog Settings... > Metadata tab > Editing
uncheck Automatically write changes into XMP
Notice the blinking stops.
Using a program that properly handles Carriage Returns/Line Feeds in IPTC metadata, such as Photo Mechanic 4.5, edit the metadata of another JPG file by typing "Word1", pressing the Return/Enter key, and typing "Word2" in the Caption field.
Import that JPG into LR.
LR Menu bar > File > Import Photos from disk... > Choose the JPG file
In the Import Photos dialog box, Information to Apply:
Develop Settings: None
Metadata: None
Keywords: None
Click Import.
Click the JPG thumbnail in LR Library Module.
Notice in the Metadata panel, "Word1Word2" appears in the Caption field, in both the Default Metadata Set and the Large Caption Metadata Set. The CR/LF has been stripped away.
CR/LFs typed into or pasted into the Large Caption set, also result in the persistence of the down-arrow icon even after metadata is saved to disk. And, if the Automatically write changes into XMP option is checked, the down-arrow icon blinks rapidly. And, if you view the Default set, notice Metadata Status: "Has been changed" blinks rapidly.
When metadata is saved to disk, the down-arrow icon should disappear from the thumbnail, and in the Metadata panel, Metadata Status should read "Up to date". I would guess the blinking behavior indicates LR is stuck in some kind of loop - it is trying to save the metadata to disk and verify that it has been saved, but it keeps going round in a vicious circle. I also notice there is increased hard drive activity during the blinking behavior.

Here is a related problem (using Lightroom 3.3, Windows). When I import photos that have the IPTC caption field created in another program (ThumbsPlus, or IrfanView), carriage returns in the original do not show up in Lightroom. Does anyone know why, or what to do about it? I'd like to import lots of photos with existing captions, and some have carriage returns I would like to retain.
For me, adding a carriage return to the Caption metadata within Lightroom works fine. In the Library view, using the right panel, I can enter a carriage return using Ctrl+Enter in the Metadata > Default view or in the Metadata > IPTC view. I can enter a carriage return directly with the Enter key (no Ctrl required) in the Metadata > Large Caption view. After these entries are saved to the file, they show up correctly in other programs (IrfanView > Image > Properties > IPTC Info)

Carriage returns no longer available in Numbers

I have just updated to the latest version of Numbers on my iPad following the update to iOS 5. It appears that the new version has annoyingly lost the ability to insert a carriage return within a cell. The onscreen keyboard now diplays a "Next" key where the "Return" used to be. I have tried every key combination on the onscreen and Mac bluetooth keyboard but cannot find how to insert a carriage return. This is driving me nuts - can anyone help with this??
Thanks

In the previous version of Numbers i.e. before the iOS 5 update I could execute a carriage return by calling the on screen keyboard up. However, the on screeen keyboard now has a "Next" key in place of a "Return" key which moves the cursor down to the cell below. I have escalated this to Apple as I am sure this can't be intentional behaviour.

GREP to Add a Carriage Return at End of Paragraph

The following search criteria adds a return at the beginning of a paragraph
Find
^.
Change to:
~b$0
Now I want to instad add a carriage return at the end of the paragraph instead, so I changed my search criteria as shown below, but never get the carriage return. How do I add a carriage return to the end of a pararagh?
Find
\z
Change to:
~b

Peter
Thanks for your help. I want to create a new, empty paragraph so I can apply a different paragraph style to it than the paragraph style used in the preceding paragraph. Once I have that, I will cut and paste text into the new paragraph that uses the just applied paragraph style.
Or perhaps more simply, move text that already has a paragraph style applied to it into a new location, but first have that new location set up with the correct paragraph style so that the formatting is not lost.
Hope that makes sense.

Hard Carriage Returns on Paragraph and XML

Hi,
I'm still running FM 7.2, I have 8.0, but we are not ready as a company to move yet.
I am capturing legacy FM information and need to save as XML.
This information will at times have paragraphs that used hard carriage returns to build in separation and make things easier to read.
When we export this XML, these hard CRs are removed and all extra white space is compressed out of the element.
This is causing much grief for the people reading the documents and they have asked if I can retain the hard breaks.
I've looked into the Structured Application and found nothing. I've looked at the ReadWrite Rules files in hopes I could map the hard break to a element of some kind, or something like that. I'm not finding any solutions.
Is there a way to keep this information in the resulting XML file?
Thanks,
- mike

Hello Mr. Hare,
you might try the following:
1. Adjust the template of your structapp to contain a variable named "hardreturn" whose definition is "\n" (without the quotiation marks).
2. In your R/W-Rules, write: entity "hardreturn"is fm char 0x09;
3. In every FM-Document you want to save as XML
a. also add the variable
b. assign the structapp
4. ..and do the following
a. insert the variable "hardreturn" somewhere and copy it into the clipboard, and delete the variable from your insertion point
b. Search for "\p\p" (=two consecutive hard returns, i.e. an "empty line" or for "\x09" (= a soft return) and "change" "by pasting".
The result should be a variable "hardreturn, wherever \p\p or \x09 was.
If you save this as XML, the \x09 from the variable should survive as an entity.
Hope this helps.
With kind regards,
Franz.

Inserting carriage returns in metadata when using fcsvr_client createasset

Anyone know how to insert a carriage returns into a field when using fcsvr_client createasset? For example:
./fcsvr_client createasset paassetspot /dev/6/test.mov PAMD_CUSTNOTES="With \n line \n breaks"

You can enter newlines as you type inline without variables; you just have to escape them to the shell.
In bash, do:
./fcsvr_client createasset paassetspot /dev/6/test.mov PAMD_CUSTNOTES=$'With \nline \nbreaks'
(The difference from your initial attempt is the dollar sign and the single quotes.)
In tcsh, you could do:
./fcsvr_client createasset paassetspot /dev/6/test.mov PAMD_CUSTNOTES="With \
? line \
? breaks"

Carriage return (cmd-alt-return) in a event

Since I switched to Mac OS Lion, carriage returns are no longer functional (cmd-alt-return). Instead of lists, my text is condensed and difficult to read. Is this a bug? Is there a setting that can correct this?

Your workaround will not be possible in my table, because there is no empty cell in the table, but I think it is also a good help too.
*In fact I forgot that you are using a table in Pages.*
Remaining on my first idea, In Numbers we may achieve the same goal using an auxiliary table with a single cell containing the needed line break.
If this table is named "LineBreak",
the formula will be:
="Hello"&LineBreak :: $A$1&"World"
*In Pages, here is my workaround:*
Enter the cell
type a§b
don't type the character § but ctrl + return.
The cell will contain
a
b
with the arrow, move before the a
type =B2&"
delete the original a
move to the right
delete the original b
type "&C7

How to undo carriage returns?

Hi, I send char(10) and char(13) to my output stream to move to the next line. If the user presses the backspace, char(8), I have to undo what he has typed. Undoing characters is not a problem as long as the user has not moved to the next line (no carriage return was sent to output stream).
I would like my cursor to move back to previous line if user does backspace and current line has no more characters. Anyone knows how?
Btw, sending char(8) to the outputstream did not do the trick, it only did so for charaters.
Thanks.

Well, it's still not working today (after 20 years). The application is on a DOS environment. Would like to undo previous line when user continuously presses backspace.

Xorg crash after carriage return [SOLVED]

When I login everything works until I give a carriage return somewhere, like emacs, shell,...
Then Xorg crashes and brings me back to gdm.
Any solutions for this problem? I'm using an nvidia graphics card.

Gnome/Xorg crashes randomly when the enter key is pressed
If you find Gnome, GDM and Xorg crashing randomly when you press the enter key, you are probably experienceing this bug: [1]
As a work arround, edit /etc/rc.conf and move Gdm to the end of the DAEMONS list
e.g. Run this command in terminal:
sudo vi /etc/rc.conf
Edit the last line of the file so it looks something like:
DAEMONS=([...] gdm)

How to make a Carriage Return in a Word-Table by OLE Automation

I generated a Table in a Word-Document by using the OLE2 Interface.
After that I wrote a Text in the first cell of the table.
Now I want to make a Carriage Return to write another Textline in the same Cell.
But first i must move the cursor to the end of the Text.
I haven't already figured that out.
Can someone Help me?
I tried this but then the Cursor moves to the Begin of the second Cell in the same row.
*Writing the Text in the Cell
GET PROPERTY OF o_cell 'Range' = o_range.
SET PROPERTY OF o_range 'Text' = wa_anschr-ename.
*Move Cursor
GET PROPERTY OF o_cell 'Range' = o_range.
GET PROPERTY OF o_range 'End' = ld_pos.
SET PROPERTY OF o_range 'Start' = ld_pos.
CALL METHOD OF o_range ' Select'.

I don't know about your suggestion.
I solved the Problem with that Method:
CALL METHOD OF o_selection 'EndKey'
EXPORTING
#1 = '5'.
CALL METHOD OF o_selection 'TypeParagraph'.
The Parameter "5" ist the VB Constant wdline...
Now it works and I'm happy
