I'm trying to develop an xml string value to produce a pdf file using nlapiXMLToPDF.
I have a custom text area field, within the field is a string value that is typed with a carriage return example:
"John Smith
Jane Smith"
When I get the field's value, it returns "John Smith Jane Smith". I want to preserve the carriage return.
When I inspected the field's value in chrome web browser, I see "John Smith <br> Jane Smith". Using nlapiLogExecution after using nlapiGetFieldValue doesn't show the <br>.
I tried using a character to denote the line break such as : and using a str.replace(/:/g, " <br />") for some reason why NS doesn't parse the replace i.e. in my nlapiLogExecution…the debug log still shows :
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Ken

Have you tried replacing rn with <br/>?

Not specifically rn but a myriad of various "carriage return" type of values.

I got it to work. The is treated as an escape character so the correct syntax is .replace(/[r]/g, ' <br />);
