I am using asp to retrieve data from an SQL Server database and display it on a web page. The data in the database has been formatted using multiple carriage returns however, when the data is displayed on the page these carriage returns are lost.
I have a form with a <textarea></textarea> to receive user input. This input is then stored in a database and sent by fax... I need to be able to remove the carriage returns (enter key... vbcrlf...) from the input so that somebody doesn't do something like fill the textarea with 100s of keypresses of the enter key and end up spitting out tonnes of blank pages on the fax machine.

I have a text box that a user is allowed to enter what ever text they wish. I then take the text store it in a Database, and at a later time print it in a document. All that part I have done. The problem I'm having is I have a client that hits return at the end of their last sentance. When this prints on the document, it sometimes causes an extra blank page to be produced to account for the last carriage return, depending on how much text they have entered. What I'm looking to do is take out any whitespace or un-needed carriage returns at the end of the string.
If I want to remove x-amount of trailing carriage returns from a string in ASP (ie, someone has entered text into a text area and left a few carriage returns) - what's the easiest way to do this?

I am using the asp sendmail script from brainjar. But I'm using a text area instead of input field for comments. Is there a function that I should run this thru in order to get it to recoginize carriage returns. Currently it won't send anything after the first carriage return.
Is there a way to detect if the user has placed two returns in a form field for example as below:- This is a short paragraph This is the second paragraph
And automatically add the surrounding <p></p> tags on inserting this into the database. Same with the edit of pages. Rather than showing the <p></p> in the form is there a way to just apply the paragraphs for the user to visually see thus preventing code in the form window?

I am using the following function:
Function DisplayMemo(theText) DisplayMemo = "" on error resume next DisplayMemo = CStr(theText) if (len(DisplayMemo) > 0) Then DisplayMemo = Replace(DisplayMemo, vbCrLf, "<br>", 1, -1, 1) end if End Function

I am writing a small database utility to catalog all of my favorite ASM/JS/VBS functions and scripts on an asp page. Everything is going smoothly except for one thing that I can't quite seem to think my way around.
I am using a <textarea> to display the code but some of my scripts have <textarea> tags in them and when the </textarea> tag is entered, it closes my <textarea> and the rest of the code ends up outside of the textarea.
Example: (the code after the middle </textarea> show up outside of the textarea box)

I am performing a post from one classic ASP page to another in order to get the value of a string passed between the two pages. I have a client script variable declared to take the value of the value being received in the page i.e. var x = '<%=varName%>'. Unfortunately, ASP seems to be adding a carriage return to the value of varName when it is passed in i.e. it expands the stated line to var x = 'FieldContents';. I.e. somewhere a carriage return has been added. The string gets passed in OK if I use the Get mechanism. Don't know why this carriage return is being added when using Post mechanism. Anybody seen this before? Is it a bug in ASP ?
