Hi,

I use a 250 character textfield where users can write a introduction about themself, which is shown on the list view.

Now some users enters a newline in that textfield and mess up the list view by making their block very heigh. It should not work as I use the Authorized input Perl expresion /.*/ This should allow anything except a newline. But however, giving an enter still result in a newline.

Does somebody know how to avoid newline's in a field type "textfield"?

Thanks in advance,
Nico

Thank for your quick responce but see also on that site www.regular-expressions.info/dot.html in the second/third line stands

The dot matches a single character, without caring what that character is. The only exception are newline characters. In all regex flavors discussed in this tutorial, the dot will not match a newline character by default. So by default, the dot is short for the negated character class [^\n] (UNIX regex flavors) or [^\r\n] (Windows regex flavors).

Do you know another regular expression to avoid newline/returns?

Can you please tell my how?

You should configure it to use Multiple words with spacing to achieve what you're wanting.

I still not able to avoid, or even better remove, line-breaks in a CB Textfield? Can you help my?

Many thanks in advance,
Nico
