Textareas and indentation

Hello,

I have a quite serious problem with textareas and haml.
Version is
trunk (1.6.0). Consider the following:

textarea_layout.haml

%div
  = content_for_layout


textarea.haml

= text_area_tag "foo", "barnbarnbar"


renders to:

<div>
  <textarea id="foo"
name="foo">bar
  bar
  bar</textarea>
</div>

As you can see, the content of the textarea is indented,
resulting in
leading whitespaces in each line of the textarea. This is
not the case
if I replace the n newlines with r carriage returns
("barrbar
rbar").

I would really appreciate any input!

Andi

There're two helpers available to deal with this. They both
work by 
replacing newlines with the HTML character code for a
newline, thus 
avoiding Haml's auto-indentation while keeping the output
relatively 
nice-looking. The first is called "preserve",
which just replaces all 
newlines. The second is called
"find_and_preserve", which replaces all 
newlines within whitespace sensitive tags, like pre and
textarea. So, 
for example, you could do:

= find_and_preserve text_area_tag("foo",
"barnbarnbar")

There's also a shortcut for "= find_and_preserve":
the ~ character.

~ text_area_tag "foo", "barnbarnbar"

Hope that helps!

Thank you, I'll look into this.

My problem is that the templates containing the text_areas
are RHTML,
so I don't have the preserve helper method available there.
But I
would have converted them anyway, so I'll just do it now.

You can actually put the ~ around the partial, and it will
search
inside of there


~ render :partial =>
"my_rhtml_partial_with_textareas"
