Re: [Zope] Line Breaks

Is there a way Zope can recognize line breaks?

If you just want to display it properly, <dtml-var theText fmt=newline_to_br> will work fine. It inserts <br> tags instead of <p> tags, but visually it is almost the same. If you really need to get fancy, you will have to do something pythonish on the lines of <dtml-in "_.string.split(theText,'\n')"> <dtml-var sequence-item><p> </dtml-in>

Essentially for this reason:

<dtml-if (there's a line break or blank line)> <p> </dtml-if>

So when uploading a text document Zope will automatically insert <p> tags when neccessary.
