I’ve just been fighting with this today. Let’s call the behavior of removing the extra line breaks “continuation.” A little experimenting finds the following behavior: Every message starts with continuation off. Lines less than 40 characters long do not trigger continuation, but if continuation is on, they will have their line breaks removed. Lines 40 … Read more
I think this works very well: span.line { display: inline-block; } <p> <span class=”line”>This text should break</span> <span class=”line”>after the word “break”</span> </p> The text still breaks on other places when there is not enough space: open demo
You want the unicode character ZERO-WIDTH SPACE (\u200B). You can get it in HTML with ​ or ​. Explicit breaks and non-breaks: LB7 : Do not break before spaces or zero width space.

That’s because single … Read more
Using .split(): var str = `your text that spans multiple lines` // Split the string on \n or \r characters var separateLines = str.split(/\r?\n|\r|\n/g); alert(“Total number of separate lines is: ” + separateLines.length); Or using .match() instead: var str = `your text that spans multiple lines` // Split the string on \n or \r characters … Read more

The HTTP and MIME specs specify that header lines must end with \r\n, but they aren’t clear (some would argue that it isn’t clear if they are clear) about what to do with the contents of a TEXTAREA. (See, for instance, this thread from an HTML working group about the issue.) Here’s a quote from … Read more
I used VB.NET Express Edition to test this. In the resource editor (where you can specify the name of the resource and string content) put the string content separated by Shift+Enter. Lets say you want to type in hello world Type “hello” followed by Shift+Enter and “world”. If you look at the Resources.Resx file (which … Read more
