Text Area component: how to perserve the format

First, set the escape property of the static text to False. Then, in the visual designer, double click the button that submits the web page and use this sort of code for the action handler:

public String button1_action() {

String text = (String)textArea1.getText();

text = text.replaceAll("\\n", "

");

staticText1.setText(text);

return null;

}
