Everything looks great on the server.
But when it hits our lotus notes server, a pretty form turns into:

Gmail is a bit better, but it strips out all the cr/lf's:

Is there somewhere in the code that I can set the language? Any idea what's going on here?

Hi bslayter,

It's a long time since I used Lotus notes and I never was too fond of it.

There's something odd with character sets here - and specifically with the new-line/carriage return . I think that ChronoForms either defines UTF-8 (or nothing at all).

You could try running the textarea result through the PHP nl2br function in the OnSubmit Before box:

<?php
$text_arae = JRequest::getString('text_area', '', 'post');
if ( $text_area ){
  $text_area = nl2br($text_area);
  JRequest::setVar('text_area', $text_area);
}
?>

where 'text_area' needs to be replaced by the name of your textarea.
