Formating help text in form pop-up help icon.

Hellos,

I am adding some on-screen guidance to a few key fields on a Create/Edit user form.

The customer wants the information to be in 2 languages, Local language AND english.

What I am struggling with is how to put blank lines of text in the help value. It seems IDM just takes the help value as one long string and wraps it around.

Is it possible to format this help ?

Currently I have something like (after bpe saves it in repository):

<Property name='help' value='This is a unique personal number given to the user by HR system. Partner/Subcontractor users must also be registered in HR system in order to get this unique number. Contact HR for more information. Tm on kyttjn yksilllinen henkilnumero HR-jrjestelmst.'/>

What I want is to separate the language texts with a blank line or two.

Try inserting a

tag in the text that you are working with. Just might work.

Try this,

Insert a break line - <br> so that the text appears in the next line

<Display class='Label'>

<Property name='help' value='This is a unique personal number given to the user by HR system. Partner/Subcontractor users must also be registered in HR system in order to get this unique number. Contact HR for more information. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Tm on kyttjn yksilllinen henkilnumero HR-jrjestelmst'/>

</Display>

Thanks,

Swatz

ok. it seems to work if I use <BR> HTML tags.

I guess all the basic HTML tags could be used.

looks like the < B R > that I wrote above got interpreted as a tag on this page :)
