I''m curious if anyone else has a need to disable *convertHTMLLineBreaks*. I actually need to show the <p>''s and <br>''s in the editor and browsing the source code, see that this isn''t configurable. Jamie

I just monkey patched it at one time, but I think I updated scriptaculous and lost it :) It''s a trivial fix to make. Just find where it strips html tags and stop it. -- Rick Olson http://techno-weenie.net
Yes, that should obviously be configurable. Submit a patch and I''m sure you''ll get it committed.

thanks guys. I''ll whip up a patch. In the meantime, I just rewrote
the method in my own javascript file:
//Need to override the default behavior of the InPlaceEditor to not
convert <p> and <br> tags
Object.extend(Ajax.InPlaceEditor.prototype, {
convertHTMLLineBreaks: function(string) {
return string;
}
});

Can someone explain what *convertHTMLLineBreaks* does? I could not find it in the docs! Does this actually take line breaks that you type into the text area and convert them??

It''s not in the docs as it''s not really part of the API. It converts <br>''s to line breaks before it displays the textarea. It does not convert back again as this is the responsibility of the server. This seems to be the desired behaviour a lot of times, but not always. Hence it should be configurable. To be honest, this feature has caused quite a bit of confusion and maybe there should be a better way of doing it.
