XML adds break line

[SurzyckiS]

Hello,

I have an XML file that I generate in flash (using input text) then I send it to the server, and reload it back into flash. On reloading the XML file, every time I had hit return has a doubled the break line.

What is this? does the input text box process the return key improperly?

Well I found that it is definitely the XML that is adding a carriage return to each line feed. Why? How cal I elegantly handle this?? (without writing CR strip code))??

Because as it is now each LF becomes LR CR (10 13)

Are you doing anything to the XML on the server side. If you are sending it to a windows box and using a routine to manipulate the XML it will be adding the CR-LF to the file.

In flash it isn't to hard to remove the CRLF

Simply to a split then a join:

eg

myArray = split(badText, 'crlf');
goodText.text = myArray.join("\n");

Sorry I don't know the code for crlf off the top of my head. Also there is a way to do this in 1 line of code and it is used in the code to make the links appear in this code:

Sorry I don't have flash on me at the moment.

Thanks
