I am using CalDAV. The user inputs the description in a text area.

I have pasted the VEvent we pass into CalDAV to be saved below

BEGIN:VEVENT
DTSTAMP:20080530T000949Z
UID:20080530T000930Z-webtop at 192.168.43.176
SUMMARY:Test9
DESCRIPTION:Test
Test
Test
DTSTART:20080526T220000Z
DTEND:20080526T230000Z
END:VEVENT

The is the VEvent that is actually saved in Chandler

BEGIN:VEVENT
DTSTAMP:20080530T000949Z
UID:20080530T000930Z-webtop at 192.168.43.176
SUMMARY:Test9
DESCRIPTION:Test
TEST:Test
DTSTART:20080526T220000Z
DTEND:20080526T230000Z
END:VEVENT

Should I pass in the description with \r or \r\n?

Thanks.
Arvind.
