I am writing the value from a textarea input box to a cookie. Long
story but when I return to the page I want to pull the value from the
cookie and put it back in the textbox. When I do this all the
linebreaks and spaces are removed.
Here is the longer version of the problem if it helps.
Essentially I have a page which sends some form infomation to an ASP
page via sometimes a querystring and sometimes a form. This can happen
several times before the final submit is pressed and the form is sent.
In order to keep the information typed in the text box I assign to a
cookie (it could very long). And write it back when returning to the
page. This works fine via the form and when set via ASP. But when the
page is left and returned to via the querystring I can't send the
contents of the text box via a querystring as it is too long. Hence I
set a cookie in Javascript. When I write it back it loses all the
linebreaks and spaces are removed.
