Rails - Apr 2006 - Does AJAX form_remote_tag remove "\r\n"?

When I submit textarea with "\r\n" inside its content, all the
"\r\n"
are gone at the receiving end? Is there a known behavior I should be  
aware off? Or should I start looking some where else.

Thank you,

Sharkie

Doesn''t for me.... You are using :text instead of :string on the
database end, right?

I do not remember having specified :text vs. :string anywhere. Where  
would this configuration be? And how would it make any differences?

J?n means in your database schema.  Your column you are stroing the text 
area in should be TEXT, and not VARCHAR(255) (or :text instead of 
:string using ruby table definitions in migrations)

Also, are you sure they are really gone?  When you redisplay the data 
use:
<%= simple_format @my_model.message %>

That will make any line breaks obvious via <p></p> and <br />
tags.
