Have you tried...

<br>sample text1<br>sample text2<br>sample text3

[kiranemc2]

No

Is it possible.

[Ned Murphy]

Try.

What code are you using to assign this text to the textfield?

Thank you for Quick reply,

I have tried today whole day but no result. I will show one of my code.

Below code i am getting bouble break but i need only one break.

var reg:RegExp = /\<\/?P.*?\/?\>/igm;

  var _m=messageField.htmlText

  _m=_m.replace(reg, '<br/>');

trace(_m) //  "<br/>sampletext1<br/><br/>sampletext2<br/><br/>sampletext3<br/>"

[Ned Murphy]

You are getting doublke breaks because your text is showing double breaks.  Every <br/><br/> you see will break twice.

[Ned Murphy]

Mhybe what you want to do is to only replace the </P> <P ... > sequences with the <BR> tag instead of every tag with a P in it.

var reg:RegExp = /\<\/?P.*?\/?\>/igm;

  var _m=messageField.htmlText//<P ALIGN="LEFT">sample text1</P><P ALIGN="LEFT">sample text2</P><P ALIGN="LEFT">sample text3</P>

  _m=_m.replace(reg, '<br/>');

trace(_m) //  "<br/>sampletext1<br/><br/>sampletext2<br/><br/>sampletext3<br/>"

Iam getting double breaks i need only one break.

Re: String Param tag replace with Br tag

[Ned Murphy]

As I indicated in my last response you probably want to be replacing the apir of tags, not individual ones.  change you regular expression to do that

[kiranemc2]

I tried But no usefull.

Can give code.

[Ned Murphy]

What did you try?  The following does what I said you should do...

var reg:RegExp = /\<\/P\>\<P.*?\/?\>/igm;
