Selecting data from a dropdown list in .NET to place in a Textbox

[SonOfZeus]

I've developed javascript code that works within .NET, when an item is selected from a DropDownList, a textbox on the screen is filled with this value. The problem I have now is that I want all the formatted text (Carriage returns and all) in the item selected in the dropdown list to be copied across. Currently, all whitespace coding is lost in the process.

First, Javascript works client side, where there is no .NET, no ASP, no JSP. Show the client side code from the browser so we can see what needs to be done.

Sorry for the poor use in terminology, but the javascript function is:

function NoteChange(dropdownControl)
{
var strTemp;
var strTemp2;
strTemp2 = dropdownControl.options
[dropdownControl.selectedIndex].innerText;
strTemp = document.all["txtBidInvoiceNote"].value;
if (strTemp2 != "")
{
if (strTemp != "")
strTemp = document.all["txtBidInvoiceNote"].value
+ "\r\n"+ dropdownControl.options
[dropdownControl.selectedIndex].innerText
else
strTemp =dropdownControl.options
[dropdownControl.selectedIndex].innerText;
}
document.all["txtBidInvoiceNote"].value = strTemp;
}
