    Macro content rendering in editor ignores newlines

    UI Questions

    I have an XSLT macro that prints out a code sample like this:

    <pre>
    <code>
    public interface IRequestProcessor
    {
        HttpResponse ProcessRequest();
    }
    </code>
    </pre>

    This works correct on the website. But when I render the macro in the backend editor, it seems to ignore the \n character and looks like this:

    Can I change this behaviour? I don't want it to ignore the newlines.

    How is you macro outputting the content?

    If you're using xsl:value-of, are you also using  disable-output-escaping="yes"  ?

     

    Cheers,

    You also might try just adding <br/> tags at the end of each line, not sure if there is another way around it.

    The Output is a <pre> Element, so

    disable-output-escaping="yes" won't escape the HTML brackets and <br /> won't work as a line break.

    Any other ideas? The XSLT/Macro itself works fine on the site. I have only the issue with the macro rendering in the backend editor.
