textarea field causing issues when trying to decode json response

[mwmayer]

I have a form with a textarea field as follows:

xtype: 'textareafield',
anchor: '100%',
fieldLabel: 'Label',
hideLabel: true,
name: 'complaint',
fieldStyle: 'text-transform:uppercase',
enforceMaxLength: true,
maxLength: 500

If a user presses "enter" in this field it seems to keep the *CRLF in the data on the back end.
Why I think so is because, when I try to use vvOut_toJSONpair to send it back to the front end,
Ext.decode crashes and says it's an invalid response.
Not to mention, if you try to bring up the record using the good ole upddta command, it says it contains invalid data.

Any suggestions on how to handle this?

it appears this did the trick but it sure is ugly..

textareafield.replace(/(\r\n|\n|\r)/gm," ");
