CF8 - Texfield DB Save

Save multiline text from a form field to a database.

Overview

The issue occurs when using a DB Save action on a text field containing line breaks, as only the first line is stored.

Big problem with text fields!

Multipage form, DB Read Action, data is read out,

TEXTFIELD: Here Line1 -> Enter -> Line2 -> Enter -> ...

Save Action under Submit: DBFIELD={data:TEXTFIELD}

BUT: it will only be the first line saved.
