newline shows in User Control Panel Desctiption?

[mathg]

Hi. I have enabled the user control panel to be able to upload images from the frontpage. But when I enter a description text, i'm not able to insert a newline. If I do it from backend it looks nice, but when I reopen the description from frontend User Control Panel, it shows as a </br>. I have been searching for help, but have not been able to find any Hope you can help? Kind regards.

Hi, in frontend you can only add text as description, it is because of security reasons

Hi Jan

Thanks for the reply.

I might not have quite explained what my problem is, or mabye I just misunderstand. But I'm trying to write three lines in the description.

Name
Phone
Age

Backend is fine, but if I enter same information in the frontend, it ends up looking like this:

Name Phone Age

If I open the description entered backend, in the User Control Panel editor it looks something like this:

Name</br >Phone</br > Age</br >

Isn't it possible to enter line break in the frontend or is that considered "code"/html?

Kind regards.

if the line breaks it really look like you posted

Code: Select all

</br >

, then you found a bug. HTML line breaks are supposed to be

Code: Select all

<br />

.
if so report to Jan!
thx,

No sorry you are right. But I still can't make the description look good, if its not possible to enter a Line Break from the front end. I'm trying to avoid letting users into the backend to be able to upload images with a description.
