Bug #49262 for Catalyst-Plugin-AutoCRUD: Editing text columns should result in textarea

Subject:

Editing text columns should result in textarea

Columns defined as "character varying" (PostgreSQL) can contain line feeds which are ignored by C::P::AutoCRUD. Also you cannot enter line feeds becuase the column is display as textfield but should be a textarea. Opening and saving such a result set results in a column without line feeds. Not very nice ;-).

I'm pretty sure this behaviour can also be viewed with MySQL and varchar columns.

Thanks for the feedback/bug report :-) I've updated the plugin to use textarea instead of textfield for most fields, if there is a size set, which I expect you do. Following that, if it seems reliable, I'll make it the default for more data types such as "text" which do not necessarily have a size but still could use line breaks. I've just published version 0.49 to CPAN, please let me know how you get on. -- regards, oliver.
