It seems a bit remote and hidden from where it's affecting. But may be easier to maintain. | |

Thanks Alex I wanted to be able to insert multiple lines and needed to add a line break, so after a bit of trial and error I found that this works: <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function() { if ($('input[name="entry_id"]').val() == '0') { $('#field_id_23').val('1st default text line'+'\n'+'2nd line'+'\n'+'3rd line'); } }); </script> not sure if this is the best method though.
