 |
|
Hi all (my first Smarty post),
I'm using Smarty as part of the Flexidocs document generation tool and am very frustrated that I can't seem to convert line feeds in a text field, as they are stored in a database, into a carriage return/line feed that will show up in the Word document that is being generated. Any line feeds that my users enter in our system disappear and a long, concatenated string is rendered.
I've tried regex_replace with many combinations of replacement characters, none of which are honoured when the document is generated.
e.g. | Code: | | {$groupProducts.description|regex_replace:'/[\n]/':"$crlf"} |
where I've tried setting $crlf to various combinations of characters.
BTW, in this set up, I don't have the option of working in straight PHP before the data is delivered to Smarty.
Would greatly appreciate any help.
Dave
P.S. I believe we're using Smarty 3 |
