Pass-thru HTML & the new Line doesn't work

Hi

i just upgraded to 6.5.1, it is a web application.

In order to have different hiding condition for 2 items on the same line (a field and next to it a * to show that it is required)i do the following:

(the field), start here the pass-thru html, then a space, then the enter (to take me to the 2nd line), then a space, then stop the pass-thru html, then the *

in rev 5 they used to come on the same line. in rev 6.5.1, they come on 2 lines as if it is considering the enter as a
.

is there a way to fix this??

thks

I think because the Enter is inside of the Pass-Thru HTML the enter is translated to a
. Did you check the source of the site to verify that you have a break there?

Did you try to stop PTHTML before the Enter and and start it again on the new line?

Just some thoughts.

I don’t know the specific answer to your question, but you’re making this too complicated. Forget about using pass-thru for this. Pass-thru is difficult to manage. Use a Computed for Display field or Computed Text with a formula like: @If(@IsDocBeingEdited; “*”; “”)
