ASP Formatting\ HTML Tables

Hey All,

I have an online form which users can fill in and change the data in the website.
When they do they just type until they are done occasionally get the odd enter.

Now i do have replace statements to pick up on vbcrlf's but when it's displayed it breaks the boundaries of the <table> it's in.
It doesnt wrap to the table width it goes as wide as it wants.

Why is this so?
b

could you post yout code

The piece of the form that plays up:

Code:

---

'---------------------------
'REPLY
Response.Write        "<tr>"
        Response.Write        "<td bgcolor=#DEDFDF valign=top nowrap><font class=drillnav >Description:</font>"
        Response.Write        "<br><br>"
        Response.Write        "<table cellpadding=3 cellspacing=1 border=0 bgcolor=#F7F7F7 align=center>"

'REPLY BODY
Response.Write        "</table></td>"
        Response.Write        "<td bgcolor=#DEDFDF>"
                Response.Write        "<table cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 border=0>"
                Response.Write        "<tr valign=top>"
                Dim thebody
                thebody = replace(rs2.fields("Description")," ", "&nbsp;")
                thebody = replace(thebody,"vbcrlf","<Br>")
                        Response.Write        "<td class=itemsml><textarea class=drillnav name=MESSAGE rows=20 cols=70 wrap=virtual tabindex=2 value=>" & thebody & "</textarea><br>"
                        Response.Write        "<font class=drillnav ><a href=javascript:checklength(document.vbform);>check message length</a></font></td>"
                Response.Write        "</tr>"
                Response.Write        "</table>"
        Response.Write        "</td>"
Response.Write        "</tr>"
Response.Write        "<tr>"

---

Here is the display code:

Code:

---

<table width="785" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
    <td width="335"> &nbsp;</br>
    <table width="280" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" height="418">
    <tr>
   
        <%
  if rs.recordcount <> 0 then
  rs.movefirst
        do while not rs.eof
        Response.Write " <td valign=top width=40 height=228> <img src=imgs/blue_arrow.gif width=11 height=9 border=0 align=right vspace=15></td>"
        %><a name="<%= rs.fields("ALink") %>" ></a><%
        Response.Write " <td valign=top height=228 width=200> <p align=justify> <img src=" & rs.fields("Image") & " width=235 height=37><br>"
       
        Response.Write "<p class=storytext>"   
        'text here
                                        Response.Write replace(rs.fields("Body"),"vbcrlf","<br>")
        Response.Write "</p></td>"
             
                Response.Write "</tr>"
        Response.Write "<tr> "
        Response.Write "  <td ></td>"
        Response.Write "  <td> <a href=#top target=mainFrame> <img src=images/top.gif border=0 align=right width=95 height=14></a><br>"
        Response.Write "    <br></td>"
        Response.Write "</tr>"
        rs.movenext
        loop
  end if
        %>

      </table></td>

This is what I get when running your code (I replaced your thebody with a count)

I'm not exactly sure how iot should look like, but all of your table tags messed up. Normal table structure is:

Code:

---


<table> 
    <tr>
        <td>   
        </td>
    </tr>
</table>
