Investigating carriage returns in communities using various Apple products

Testing the ability to read and post in an Apple community from PC, iPhone and iPad using "return" to space paragraphs.
This is a new paragraph and should have a line break in between
Multiple line breaks in between
More line breaks
End

It seems that from an iPhone, the line breaks are replaced with the following code:
<p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;"> </p>
Putting some additional line breaks from a Windows PC here to test. Via the PC, the reply input contains a WYSIWYG RTE whereas the iPhone contained what looked like a text area

  • I bought this very nice iMac. The first time I ever use a Apple product. Can someone please tell me where the delete key is on the keyboard. I cannot think for one moment that Apple did not provide for such a key. Please help.

    I bought this very nice iMac. The first time I ever use a Apple product. Can someone please tell me where the delete key is on the keyboard. I cannot think for one moment that Apple did not provide for such a key. Please help.

    The delete key does a backward delete because it is the natural way to delete while typing. May not be to you and the millions of youngsters who grew up with windows computers. When you are typing and want to delete that which you just typed you are already at the end and you delete back to where you want to re-type. When you go back to a document and want to delete a selection, you have to go to the end of the selection instead of the beginning. it's just the way its always been done on macs. it takes some getting use to.
    If you select text to be deleted with your mouse then the delete key deletes the selected text. same for either delete key method.
    It is not convenient when you tab to fields in a form. That why fn-delete does a forward delete.
    Macs have a couple of keyboards. The small "wireless keyboard" only has the (backward) delete (fn-delete forward). The larger "Apple Keyboard with Numeric Keypad" has both a Delete (backwards) key beside the = abd it has the "delete >" key in the groups with fn, home, end, Pg up and Pg dn. This keyboard is best for users who have switched from windows or are familiar with the windows forward delete.

  • Losing carriage returns in textarea / using plpdf to generate report

    Hello,
    I'm using Apex 3.1.1 and Oracle 10g database. I would appreciate any suggestions on how I can preserve carriage returns in a textarea when sending the text to a package that generates a report. Please see example of current problem (below code). I'm using an onkeypress function to check for keycode = 13 when the Enter key is pressed -- that is working. I also created an alert to show the url value -- I can see the text on multiple lines, so that appears to be working as well. The textarea value parameter in the package is defined as varchar2. Per the support folks at plpdf.com, chr(13) indicates an explicit line break, and they told me to check my text. I don't know what I'm missing. Thank you for any suggestions you may have.
    Lisa

        return lparms;

    Hello Michael,
    Thank you for your response. After doing some researching and experimenting, here's what I have found so far.
    First, using an onkeypress function to alert the keycode, a chr(13) is being returned when I press the Enter key in the textarea.
      function check_Enter(e)
        var keynum;
        var textval = $x('P212_INCORRECT').value;
        if(document.all) 
          keynum = e.keyCode
        else
          keynum = e.which
        alert(keynum);     
      }Next, when I access the value of the textarea via javascript with $x('P212_INCORRECT').value, the chr(13) is automatically converted to the newline character (\n). In an attempt to replace the \n with a \r so plpdf will recognize the carriage return, I added a javascript replace function before sending the text to the package, and it does not work.
      function build_params()
        var lparms;
        lparms = '';
        lparms = lparms + '&p_incorrect=' + $x('P212_INCORRECT').value;
        lparms = lparms + '&p_correct=' + $x('P212_CORRECT').value;
        alert(lparms.split(/\n/g).length - 1);  // confirm that a newline character is found
        lparms = lparms.replace( new RegExp( "\n", "g" ), "\r");  // replace newline character with carriage return
        return lparms;
      }When I tried to replace the newline character (\n) with chr(13), the chr(13) is printed out like it is text instead of a special character. In order to test that I have the correct syntax for the replace function in javascript, I tried replacing \n with '...', and then in the package that generates the PDF, I replaced the '...' with chr(13). That works!
    In response to your comment about the PLPDF procedure for multi line section, I am using: plpdf.PrintMultiLineCell(180, 6, l_incorrect, '0', 0). As a newbie to javascript, I am not sure why replacing \n with \r is not working. Can you advise how to use a chr(13) in the javascript replace function and have it recognized as a special character and not text? I don't know how to view special characters in the textarea other than checking for them with javascript.
    Thanks, Lisa

  • About confirmation of the rights to use the apple product photos on your website.

    I would like to use apple product photos published on your website when I renew my website for new business strategy.
    Usually we have to recieve prior approval from copyright holder before action or publishing on the web in Korea.
    I love apple & products, so I would like to introduce my solution based on the web with yours.
    Please let me know how to recieve prior approval.
    I think It isn't that serious problems, right?
    Helpful to make a new customer of apple products ....~!

    You can try to contact Apple after taking a look at this page:

    And you will need to get approval first.

  • Allergy from using any apple product with alumminim casing

    I have develpoed allergy on two of my fingers where I touch my MacBook pro. It is started after I bought my first macbook pro.  I persisted thinking it is due to something else.  However, I stayed a way from the mac and my allergy disaapeared.  I then covered it with adhessive plastic and then with palstic case but still give continuous outbreak.  I used ipad and did the same to it but again I has terrrible allergies with fingers that are in the vicinity of my covered ipad  and MAcbook pro.  Then I shifted to Vaio and my finger got better.  I thought Ok let me get iphone 4 and put a leather cover on it.  Again my allergy came back.  It is interesting that iphone 3 did not give me problems.  I think there something in the brushed aluminum that coats macbook pro, ipad and iphone 4.  Please I need some help.  I think apple should produce products with other matrials so we can all enjoy the product.  I think for now I am going to toss all of the apple products.  They are Macbook pro, iMAc 27 inch, ipad and ipad2, and iphone 4.  It seems that apple is insensitive to clients requests.  I found that many people have the same problems.

    Actually, the issue is not moot as more and more people are becoming affected. I am a long time Apple customer, starting with my first Macintosh in 1986. Believe me, the last thing on my mind is to complain about Apple products.
    That said, I was diagnosed a few months ago with Dyshidrosis (also known as dyshidrotic eczema, pompholyx, podopompholyx, cheiropompholyx, acute vesiculobullous hand eczema, or just simply hand eczema). This condition causes small, itchy blisters on the hands (and sometimes also the feet). The skin becomes very thick and cracks. As soon as any of the blisters begin to clear up, several more reappear overnight. I experience a constant bombardment of blisters on the palms of my hands. Nothing over the counter or prescribed by a dermatologist has cleared up the problem.
    One of the common triggers of dyshidrosis is an allergic reaction to nickel.
    While I cannot be certain that I developed this condition after using my Mac laptops for so many years, the pattern of the breakouts on my hands match with my normal habit of where I rest my hands. My right hand is less affected than my left hand. I have noticed that my right hand is lifted up more often as I move around the keyboard and trackpad. During that time, my left hand palm is resting flat on the Mac's aluminum body.
    To be honest, I cannot imagine not using my Mac so I'm going to do my best to cover all parts of it using one of the recommended products out there, such as possibly the InvisibleShield or BodyGuardz full body covers. I understand I must also cover my iPhone and iPad with full body protection.
    I very much hope as the news of more and more people developing nickel allergies from the many electronic devices we use each day, Apple will offer products with bodies that do not contain nickel. It seemed like such a good idea at the time, but the long-term consequences are proving to do more harm than good.
    The only way people can become educated about the nickel allergy is for those of use who are affected to speak up. Dismissing our comments simply because you are not affected does not make it a non-issue. There once was a time when I was not affected, as well. Now I am. Who's next?
    It's also important that others know of the connection between electronics with nickel and the development of allergies to nickel. It is likely that people are dealing with this condition without knowing of the connection. The first step to finding a solution is to find the cause.
    If you are not familiar with this problem, google dyshidrosis (or any of the alternative names) with Apple, Macintosh, computers, and so on. You'll find a lot of others now suffering from the condition and the link with Apple (and any other brand using nickel) products. I wish I had known before it happened to me. I would have taken more precautions. Now all I can do is figure out the best way to deal with it.

  • How to Add Carriage Return After PageBreak using XSL code?

    Hi,
    I have created one RTF Template for Check printing. My requirement is to print check on next page if total number of invoices exceeds certain value.
    I achieved this and used below condition in my RTF Template.
    <xsl:if xdofo:ctx="inblock" test="count($invLines)>=$lpp"><xsl:attribute name="break-after">page</xsl:attribute></xsl:if>
    "lpp" is global variable whose value is set at the start of template. Now i also want to add some space after pagebreak in my Template.
    Like presently, check prints at the top of page, so i want to print it after leaving 9-10 lines blank.
    Can anyone please help me to achieve this?
    Thanks
    Amit

    Hi,
    I tried below syntax but its working only for first page, its not giving space for second page
    <xsl:if xdofo:ctx="inblock" test="count($invLines)>$lpp"><xsl:attribute name='space-after'>700pt</xsl:attribute></xsl:if>
    I want to combine it with page-break. Like i need specific space only after page break. I tried to combine both, but its not working. Any inputs on these?
    <xsl:if xdofo:ctx="inblock" test="count($invLines)>$lpp"><xsl:attribute name='space-after'>100pt</xsl:attribute>

  • What does one do when a newly purchased iPad is set up wrong at and Apple Store in Bellvue ,Wa.I now have 3 Apple ID's and all of my Apple iphones,MacBooks ,and iPads are out of sync ,not knowing which account is which I'm unable  use any Apple products .

    All and all I've spent 10 long days contacting ,calling ,chatting,and at the Genius Desk.When all Apple has to do is correct the mistake they consolidate all these account under my original account ,the e-mail ,credit card ,user name or all the same for these accounts .Why can't the Apple people figure this ,the under trained employ who rush thru this set of my iPad ,iCloud ,and accounts made mistakes and I want them fixed.I want 1 account 1password like I had the day I walk Into the Bellvue ,Wa.    Apple Store. what's the Problem?Why do I get kicked from one department to another department,with the response that is as far as my technical skill allow me to process.The genius desk can help me , iTunes,can't help me,Apple support can't help me,the Apple Store in Bellvue ,Wa. Who created the mess can't help me,Who can help me? it simple open your computer move a few digits correct this mistake it's not rocket science,or is it? Thanks From One Unhappy Customer

    Even if you put a credit or debit card on file with iTunes it will still use your balance FIRST.
    I would suggest putting a card on file and testing to see if it will allow you to make a purchase, then removing the card from the account after successful download of an item.

  • TS1702 I love my various Apple products, but "Pages" word processor: not so much

    Just purchased "Pages" because my prior word processor on my new iPad decided to stop sending emails
    It worked for a few months, then decided to hate me and do strange things.
    I am already having this problem with Pages, after just 5 minutes of buying and downloading it.
    I do what it says to do, and nothing happens
    I'm working with an Apple desktop to see if it arrives at my email address as I had hoped, but was very saddened to see did not happen.
    Do I have to wait several hours before it arrives at its email destination?
    Also, all I wanted to do was chage the title of the document
    I touch it and nothing happens
    It wants to remain being called "blank"
    again
    There are no instructions I could find to help with this
    I am not particularly computer literate, but don't hate me just because I hate technology.
    I use Apple because I like that it rarely causes me problems.
    For some reason, the app store is not my friend.
    I've also fired off a request for help from Apple directly, but figured I'd sent this out as well, to see what others can tell me.
    Besides crapping on me, of course, because I am not a computer-loving-person, and don't understand what others think is easy.
    Cheers,
    Paul

    I don't have the Pages app myself, but there is some help for the app here : http://help.apple.com/pages/ipad/1.6.1/
    Emailing a document : http://help.apple.com/pages/ipad/1.6.1/#tan72489eaa
    It looks like you should be able to rename a document by tapping its name on the document selection screen - from here :
    Tap its name, and then type a new one.
    If you want to quickly delete the current name that appears in the field, tap the “x” on the right side.

  • Absoultrly new to using any apple product

    Hello:
    .Picked up a gen2 i-pad. On the app, news stand, I added a newspaper and opened it up to take a look. Now I can't get rid of it, it stays open so can't see any other mags, etc. any help appreciated. Thanks

    Here's the "Using Newsstand" article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4943
    I don't have any magazines in my newsstand.  But I'm thinking closing a newspaper is the same as closing a book in iBooks: Look for a button on top of the newspaper that says "Store" or "Library" or some such thing and click that button.

    With an iPad you can't. At least not just with the native app. iPads do not support SMS messaging. you will need to look into alternate messaging apps from the app store, such as Text Plus.

  • Cannot use my Apple ID to log into Support Communities

    I can't log into support communities using my Apple ID.
    I have to log in using an older e-mail address I used when Apple first started cloud-like services MANY YEARS ago.
    The e-mail address I have to use is obsolete and I'd just like to abandon its use for support communities.
    When I try to log into support communities with my Apple ID the site starts acting like a Microsoft site and keeps redirecting me in loops to the same nonfunctional page.
    Weird, I know, that's why I'm writing this.
    Why can't I log into support communities with my Apple ID?
