    What is alternative method for mutliline text area line brakes in umbraco 8.

    In Umbraco 7, we had the following extension method in umbraco helper.

    @Umbraco.ReplaceLineBreaksForHtml(multiLine);

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Sumesh,

    I tend to just add .Replace(Environment.NewLine, "<br />") to the output so

    Model.TextareaOutput.Replace(Environment.NewLine, "<br />")

    or 

    Model.Value("textareaOutput").Replace(Environment.NewLine, "<br />")

    I was just looking for this today as well. I found there is now an HtmlHelper:

    @Html.ReplaceLineBreaksForHtml(multiLine)

    Note that it returns HtmlString, not string!

    I initially copied the v7 string extension but had to revisit where I was using it, so I was searching for my extension (same name) and happened to find the HtmlHelper in /Views/Partials/Grid/Editors/Textstring.cshtml

    Now it's:

    Html.ReplaceLineBreaks(text);

    ReplaceLineBreaksWithHtml is deprecated

    I can't believe this isn't in the docs.
