textarea with bullet point for each line

Question

I have a textarea where users enter notes and want to automatically add a bullet point for each line.

I was thinking of using a rich text editor (eg CKEditor) with bulleted mode enabled. Any better ideas?

Answer 1

How about you ask the user to enter notes one at a time using a single-line text field. When they press return, add it as a list item to the notes list.

When they click on an item in the list, either copy the text into the text field or create a new text field inside the list item for in-place editing.
