Line breaks and whitespaces in repeaters

Hi,

i have a small problem. In a repeater I want to display some values from the document (rowData). I use getItemValue or getItemValueString. That works fine, but more whitespaces in a row and line breaks will be ignored! I think it is because of the repeater, it does not like line breaks.

Any help?

Greetings,

Michael

Can you post a code snippet, Not quite sure I get what's happening. I've used both <br /> and <xp:br /> inside of repeat controls.

Thanks

Re: Line breaks and whitespaces in repeaters

Hi,

I have a label in a repeater with a code like this, should be clear what I do, I hope:

try{

getMainDoc(rowData.getItemValue("MainDocID")).getItemValue("Description");

}catch(e){

return e;

}
