Multi-line _IEFormElementSetValue

[alechielke]

Hey,

I'm trying to use _IEFormElementSetValue to set an inputbox to a multi-line string (I'm not good at explaining I know).

I want it to look something like this:

My problem:

(insert variable here)

My solution:

(insert variable here)

The function picks the correct input box, but I can only seem to have it send one line. I was able to do this in the past with send by just sending an enter whenever I wanted a new line, but now I want the script to be able to run in the background, so this is no longer an option. Can anyone help?

What have you tried thus far? Show us your code.

Here's what I've got so far

Global $oIE = _IECreate('localhost/database/newcodeproblemsolution.php', 0)
Local $newform = _IEFormGetCollection($oIE, 0)
Local $description = _IEFormElementGetCollection($newform, 1)
_IEFormElementSetValue($description, "test"&"test");this is where the multi-line string goes

I'm trying to improve my knowledge of a few programming languages, so I made a little php page that submits problems and solutions to a database.

Local $description = _IEFormElementGetCollection($newform, 1)
