Carriage Return in String

[RJL1]

Hello,

We have the following string which is generated from our warehouse management system into an XML file. We grab the error tag from the XML file and use it to send an email with the error. The error is a single string that looks like this

Invalid receipt (81989373):Invalid receipt detail (40):Invalid item.:Item "12345678" with company "Acme" does not exist.

We like to present it like this

Invalid receipt (81989373):
Invalid receipt detail (40):
Invalid item.:Item "E0919806" with company "Energizer" does not exist.

Basically we like to add a carriage return after every ":"

Is this even possible

Thanks in advance
RJL

You will likely have to parse that with some sort of scripting language. javascript or your server-side language of choice.

strError = "Invalid receipt (81989373):Invalid receipt detail (40):Invalid item.:Item \"12345678\" with company \"Acme\" does not exist.";
strError = strError.replace(/:/g,":\n");
alert(strError);
