Problem with line breaks in property fields

[janvw]

The presence of line breaks in property (string-)fields of SDF features is causing IE7 to show an error message (unterminated string constant), see attached SDF file. This happens when clicking on a feature in the AJAX viewer. The properties of the feature are not being displayed in the properties pane. System: MGOS 2.2 final, PHP installation; IE7; Win XP pro.

Can you please indicate which property in particular contains the line breaks?

Thanks

It's the property "Bemerkungen" Sorry, the first version I uploaded didn't contain any line breaks. The actual version does now.

I solved the problem by inserting a new line after line 393 in getselectedfeatures.php:

393 $val = JsonEscape($fr->GetString($propName)); String content is arbitrary 394 $val = trim(preg_replace('/\s+/',' ',$val)); new 395 break;

Properties containing line breaks are now correctly displayed in the properties pane.

Do you have a .net/Java equivalent solution? Basically what is similar to preg_replace in .net/Java

[janvw]

Untested possibilities:

.net: value = JsonEscape(reader.GetString(propName)); String content is arbitrary Regex rgx = new Regex("
s+"); value = rgx.Replace(value, " "); value.Trim(); break;

jsp: value = JsonEscape(reader.GetString(propName)); string content is arbitrary value.ReplaceAll("
s+", " "); value.trim(); break;
