keep newlines in HTML

I have some HTML like this:

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
<!-- Copyright 2001 William Bontrager
// You may use this JavaScript code so long as the copyright line, the more info link, and 
//      the instructions remain with the code. For additional form creation and script 
//      customizing information, see the article "JavaScript Quiz Program" linked from 
//      http://willmaster.com/possibilities/archives/
// On the next line, specify the number of answer choices at each question:
NumChoices = 4;
// Leave next five lines as is.
function CalculateScore()
{
    var score = 0;
      for (i = 0; i < NumChoices; i++)
    {
          .....
     }
<morehtml>html</morehtml>

So here is my problem: if we remove all "\n" chars from the above code, it breaks. How can I prevent FCK from putting all html on 1 line (removing \n chars)?

Re: keep newlines in HTML

There's something wrong on your side, FCKeditor won't put the contents of a script in a single line. Just check the online demo (and make sure that your page validates)

<span>test</span>

When I hit "submit" I get 1 long line.
When I hit source (after first pasting src and editing), I do see it doesn't change the script (before submitting) - BUT this is still a problem because of bad coding on my html pages (that I didn't code...).

Re: keep newlines in HTML

I've checked on the demo and when I submit the data I can see that it's properly spaced (check the source of the page).
With tomorrows nightly you won't even have to check the source as it will be shown in white-space:pre (to check online use the php samples)

Re: keep newlines in HTML

I understand my mistake now. FCK is great! Thanks for the info on the SVN too.
