Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

Hello,

I use JSF 1.2 and Facelets to generate a form automatically. This works so far well. But if I have a label with line breaks, JSF does not convert the line breaks into �
� tags. Is there a hack to convert line breaks into �
� tags?

A little example

Code:

<h:outputLabel value="#{component.label}" for="#{component.id}" />
<h:inputText value="#{component.value}" id="#{component.id}" />

component.label = �First Line\nSecond Line�
component.value = "UserInput"

This is rendered to:

First Line Second Line      [UserInput] 

Instead of:

First Line        [UserInput]
Second Line 

One possible solution is to disable �escape�. But this is a bad solution because there are umlauts and angle brackets (�<�,�>�) in some texts for my labels. Does anyone know a better solution?

Regards
Martin
