Dear All,

I have a custom field 'Action'. It is a Long Text Area type of field. When i try to bring this field on to the visualforce page then it does not retain formatting like line spacing, line breaks etc.. Below mentioned is the code, please let me know how formatting can be retained on visualforce page as well.

 '</br>*****<h1>POS</h1>*****' +
    '</br></br>' +
    '<tr align="left"><b>POS Number: </b></tr>' + POS.Name + '</br></br>' +
    '<tr align="left"><b>Created By: </b></tr>' + POS.CreatedBy.name + '</br></br>'+
    '<tr align="left"><b>Is this the most recent POS? </b></tr>' + POS.Most_Recent_Record__c + '</br></br>'+
     '<tr align="left"><b>Status: </b></tr>' + POS.Status__c + '</br></br>'+
    '<tr align="left"><b>Action: </b></tr>' + '<div style="word-wrap:break-word; width:450px;"/>' + POS.Action__c + '</br>';
    containerList.add(cc);

Date Entered in Salesforce.com

Formatting on Visualforce page is all broken




Thanks.

Hello All,

How can i reduce the width of my output text. It is a standard Comments (Text) field from Tasks. Any inputs/pointers will be appreciated

Here is the code

for(Task task: gettask())
{
    CommonContainer cc=new CommonContainer();
    cc.createdDate=task.CreatedDate;
    cc.content=
    '</br>*****<h1>Tasks and Activities</h1>*****' +
    '</br></br>' +
    '<tr align="left"><b>Assigned: </b></tr>' + task.Owner.name + '</br></br>' +
    '<tr align="left"><b>Created By: </b></tr>' + task.CreatedBy.name + '</br></br>'+
    '<tr align="left"><b>Status: </b></tr>' + task.Status + '</br></br>'+
    '<tr align="left"><b>Priority: </b></tr>' + task.Priority + '</br></br>'+
    '<tr align="left"><b>Due Date: </b></tr>' + task.ActivityDate + '</br></br>'+
    '<tr align="left"><b>Subject: </b></tr>' + task.Subject + '</br></br>' +
    '<tr align="left"><b>Description/Comment: </b></tr>' + task.Description +'</br>';
     containerList.add(cc); 
}

Here is the output of the code, you can see text is spread across the page. I want it to be little compact (probably half the current size)

Dear All,

I have created a visualforce page wherein I am getting all Tasks and Email records from the Case. I am showing them in the chronological order.

I have created another component (not working and need help) on Visualforce page which allow users to either select Tasks or Emails and then click on 'Show' button. Depending on the selection on visualforce page, user would either see Tasks or Emails on the visualforce page. Any help/pointers would help alot.

I am creating a visualforce page which would basically capture case related updates (excluding field updates) including Tasks created, Emails Sent, Email recieved , Comments created, custom related lists in chronological fashion on Visualforce page. Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks.
