Can I make a list of Textareas

[kevinr432]

I am writing a fairly simple help system for my business. Does anyone know of a way to display a list of items (such as comments as shown in this screen shot), but instead of being plain text, the results could be textareas? Notice how when the user enters text in the entry box at the top, the text can have carriage returns,

but when the comments appear in a regular list the carriage returns are lost.

In the list component, you can use description_md to render rich text, that includes newlines (but also bold, italics, images).
You could replace single line returns with two line returns to create markdown paragraphs.

select 'form' as component;
select 'txt' as name, 'textarea' as type;

select 'list' as component;

set nl = '
'; -- new line character

select 
    replace(:txt,$nl,($nl||$nl)) as description_md;

Thank you so much for your help. I was able to use your example to get the result I wanted.
