Line break for larger amounts of text
I am taking data from several fields and putting it into one text area field. I would like to have a line break to help organize the data in the field more clearly. However, inserting the following example doesn't work: All_Records = input.My_Record1 + "<br />" + input.My_Record2; It merely outputs the exact text for the line break tags. Is there any way to achieve a line break? I am sure this would be helpful as well for sending text areas as emails too. It would make them more humanly readable.
How do you add a Carriage Return to an email?
This is probably a really stupid question. However, I would like to get some help in sending an email that says: "Hello " + input.Name + ",\n Thank you for your interest in our Company. We have recieved your message and will attempt to fulfill your request as soon as we can. \n \n " + "Our Team." with the \n's being new lines. Somehow, everything stays on one line and I can't find any documentation on it on the Deluge help.
Line separators in Creator API
I have a problem using the new Zoho Creator API. I am trying to use the RPC CSV API to view data. According to the documentation, you use a form hidden field to send the request to filter the data. This request have to be separated by "line separators" as it is said in the API docs (I guess you mean line feeds or carriage returns). The problem is: I separate the data with the ''enter" key, but this is not recognized by the Zoho page that receives the data, and this page sends an error message saying

Case sensitive ordering bug
The alphabetical ordering for text fields has a little bug. The ordering within the displayed number of results and the ordering for the total number of results is not quite the same. Just to clear it up: I have a view that shows 10 records per page. On the first page the last (for example) Aa, Ab, Ba On a view showing all (100): the ordering is Aa, Ab, BA, BB, BC, ..., Ba, Bc So, in other words, the total ordering is correct (ignores case), but in the ordering within the page is case sensitive which

Passing data... invoking code based on row in view
How do I invoke a block of code based on the user's selection of a row in a view? For example... 1) The user searches through my list of 100 records 2) He finds 10 possibilities. 3) Row #7 is the one that he likes. I want to execute a block of code using the record from row 7... specifically I want to send an email to row 7 but I don't want to expose the email address in the rows. Great system! Thanks, Zoho Creator app: http://www.officeswap.com

Sorting in list view
I imported a data file to create my Creator table. 1st problem is the records are now in reverse order 2nd, weirder, problem is that when I sort by Last name column, it seems to sort only within whatever the current number or records per page is. So, it will sort only the first 30 records out of 275. As if it first breaks the 275 records up into chunks of 30 and then sorts each chunk. But I expect it to sort all 275 then break that into chunks of 30 per page. rdtietjen
Service Unavailable
I have suffered from filling in an extensive form only to find that upon submission there is an error "Service Unavailable" which redirects me to the creator homepage. This happened quite a few times to different forms, and is not readily reproducible. I suspect that it is simply some instantaneous problem that occurs only for that moment - resubmitting usually works (after filling in the form all over again of course). This is rather irritating for users who had spent a lot of effort trying to fill
importing cut & paste address data
Creator seems to assume numeric column data should be formatted numerically which means it knocks the leading 0 off of new england zip codes. A more database-like import would defer formatting decisions to a manual step. rdtietjen

2nd lookup on edit always default to null
I have two lookup fields that look up to the same form. Basically these two fields allow me to choose users from the same form that contains all my users. Every time I try to edit a record, I find that the 2nd lookup field always default to "-Select-" (it's a picklist lookup). Is this a bug regarding multiple lookup fields looking into the same place?

Darn Skinny Text Column
I have a very large table of data, and one of the columns is a "Comments" field. These comments are multiple lines of text usually. The problem is that the column is quite narrow in the view, which results in each line only holding one or two words and making the row very tall. Not only does this look terrible, but it also is very difficult to read. I propose being able to set the column widths in the "view" settings to avoid this.
Text "Notes" field formatting bugs
I am trying to use the text notes field as a way to set off different groups of fields. I am changing the font size and making something bold. However, the font size doesn't work sometimes. It looks fine when editing the text, and it looks fine when previewing the form in the editing pane, but when I "access this application" the text displays wrong sometimes. Is there a way for me to see the html that is formatting the text so that I can clean it up?
