There appears to be a small bug on the admin/flex_editor page.

where there is a textarea display type which contains an entry which is on
multiple lines eg. a complex search type, when the flex_editor page displays
this in a textarea box, each line break has an additional line break added
to it on display.

So:

fi=products
st=db
co=1
sf=category
se=foo
..
sp=results

becomes:

fi=products

st=db

co=1
sf=category

se=foo

..

sp=results

etc.

if you are not aware of this, on each update of the form you add linebreaks,
until your search starts to be truncated due to the max length of the field.

Jonathan.

PS. have you got a bug tracking database in place yet? This would save
unneccessary emails like this where you are aware of the problem.
