Hi,

In the Description field of a link, I try to use "Return" caracters, but Links SQL doesn't handle them.

For example, if in the field I put :

"This is

a test description."

Links SQL will then display it like this : "This is a test description."

Do you know how can I manage this feature with Links SQL ?

Thank you !

Amicalement / Regards,
Gautier Girard.

Not sure this will work, but try making a new global, say Description_Edit. Then add the following sub to it;


Then just use <%Description_Edit%> in your link.html. THIS CODE IS UNTESTED!

Hi Andy,

Thank you for your help .

Sorry for boring you again, but...Where do I create this new global ?

I'm not perl guru, not at all like you see, as I'm only able to well understand Php scripts .



Your help is much appreciated.

Best Regards from France,

Goto Build > User Globals, and then just add it at the bottom of that page ;)

Hi,

I've always just put the html code directly into the description. This seems easier than writing a global for every piece of HTML you want in that field. Unless I'm missing something... (It seems like a simple solution!)

This is a<br>
test description.

Displays as

This is a
test description.

I have also used HTML to add a link, bold text, etc. to the description.

check this discussion out:

(I don't know why but it seems I can't quote anything)

Hi AtoZ,

Your solution is good but unfortunately the people who will use Links SQL don't know Html at all . And of course, they will not want to learn it .
