Hi,
I am exposing rest api where i am generating an error. I am using newline() fn but during render it turns into \r\n. I have used char(10) also, it further renders into \n.
Any suggestion how to introduce new line.
Regards,
Virat

Hi, after writing the error message with the newline() do URLEncode()

Not working. It turns into %0d%0a
can you share oml, or images to try to understand how you are doing?
Hi Virat, can you give us more detail of what are you trying to achieve, pic or/and logs of the errors, the oml perhaps, cheers.
{
"Errors": ["Atribute 1 is mandatory\r\nAtribute 2 is mandatory"],
"StatusCode": 500
}
Getting the error in above format.
please try with Chr(13) + Chr(10).
Hi Virat,
it's perfectly normal that a newline becomes an \r\n in the JSON / result text variable. If you consequently use it in an OS screen in a expression or TextArea widget, the newline is neatly respected.
Maybe you want to show it with the msg node. In that case newline doesn't work. See attached oml.
By default, the msg node doesn't respect either newline characters, or <br> html element. But you can call the message code through javascript, and have 3rd parameter on true, in that case a <br> gets respected.
By the way, this is not related to you using a rest api, if you use a simple server call, this behaves exactly the same.
See attached oml,
Dorine
EDIT : as for the reason it doesn't work in the msg popup, that's beyond my understanding, it probably has something to do with it being shown in a div, whereas in an expression or textarea, it's shown in a span. But that's just a wild guess of mine.
@carlos,
It is not working. I have attached the demo.oml in my previous reply. One more thing, i am calling rest api from outside.

check this answer this is a problem exactly or very similar to yours

How to call java script widget in server action?
you can use:
and add your script inside
I already tried this option by passing following string:
Result.Error = EncodeJavaScript(If(Trim(Result.Error)="","Atribute1 is required",Result.Error+"\nAtribute1 is required" ))
But it gives me empty string. Might be i am not using in right way.
Hi Virat, I know that isn't what you want but can help you to get the format you need:
Instead of raising an exception, deal with the message on client-side, use the API:
SyntaxEditor Code Snippet
$public.FeedbackMessage.showFeedbackMessage($parameters.ErrorMessage, 3, false, '', true);
and you can manage and show 2 lines on the feedback.
when you raise the exception you also encode the entire msg and your (newLine(), <br/>, \r\n, etc) will become text and will get the behave we got until now.
You can see in the photo
I attached the oml, check if you can use this idea to achieve your goal
Hope I could help you.
Best regards
