A new showform/objpref/pref/config/settings option... 'textbox'
I think this would be quite good, and you could have a little tickbox for whether or not LotGD should return an 'nl2br'd string.
Maybe it could act like range?
textbox,<NUM OF COLS>,<NUM OF ROWS>

You mean this? (from showform)

Code:

case "textarea":
$cols = $info[2];
if (!$cols) $cols = 70;
rawoutput("<textarea class='input' name='$keyout' cols='$cols' rows='5'>".htmlentities(str_replace("`n", "\n", $row[$key]))."</textarea>");
break;

No, it doesn't allow you to specify the rows, but that would be about ... 2 lines of code?
Not something I really see the need for though, 5 lines in a block are generally enough for a quick edit box.

Of course, YOU need to handle the conversion of newline to `n or newline to <BR> on your own on the handling of the form. showform has NOTHING to do with what you do with the data when you get it back, nor should it (nor could it!)

Or, you can just post as you wish (with enters, instead of <br> and `n), and then when you call it in:

Code:

require_once("lib/nltoappon.php");
$a = nltoappon(get_module_setting("text"));

Then, it would handle the breaks, be they enter key.

Of course, as Kendaer stated, it is not needed, nor much useful.

If you didn't understand anything in the above post, don't try to attempt anything suggested.

Ah, cool.
I didn't know of it.. there are ways I could have used this! *evillaugh*
I knew of nltoappon.. *grin*
I'm making a blog module, so this would help.. I've currently got a showform then a hardcoded textarea.
