    Default ignoring HTML with a replaceNoCase

    I've got a text area that people can submit text and HTML into. I need to
    replace all the line breaks with a <br> in order to format it correctly.

    I was using:
    <cfset subjectdatatouse = replaceNoCase(SubjectInfo.subjectdata,
    "#Chr(13)##Chr(10)#", "<br>", "ALL")>

    but it will cause an error with something like this:
    <img
    src="xyz.gif">

    It would end up puting a <br> in the middle of the img tag. Is there a way to
    have it ignore the replace if "#Chr(13)##Chr(10)#" exists within an HTML tag?

    Thanks.

    Default Re: ignoring HTML with a replaceNoCase

    Hi,
    Your error must be caused by something else, that <cfset> is formated fine -
    identical to ones we've done that in for years. you can try just using
    #chr(13)# in the pattern though.. that may resolve your problem.
