#349 closed defect (fixed)

Prompt text in search commands can't include line breaks.

Description

If the user inserts a line break in the prompt text in a search command a java script error will prevent the ajaxviewer from loading.

Example:
This text will work:
"Search for places beginning with: Example 'holly' will return 'hollywood'"
This text will not work:
"Search for places beginning with:
Example 'holly' will return 'hollywood'"

This could be fixed by replacing the new line characters with a html new line tag, so the this text would work:
"Search for places beginning with:<br>Example 'holly' will return 'hollywood'"

To make sure there are no line breaks in the prompt text a quick solution for the phpviewer would be to change line 229 from
StrEscape($cmd->GetPrompt()),
to
str_replace("\n", "<br>", StrEscape($cmd->GetPrompt())),

Note: This also happens for the DWF viewer, but it is fixed with the same code.
