Greetings,

For my company I am currently creating a page which enables users to fill in a form which in turn creates a content node in the umbraco CMS. I am currently using Umbraco v6.1.5.

The problem I have is with one of the values that needs to be inserted into the cms. I gather a number of ISBN numbers(as string values) from the form and try to insert these into the contentnode like so:

ContentService contentService = new ContentService(); 

var product = contentService.CreateContentWithIdentity(
                "Name", // the name of the product
                parentNode, // the parent id should be the id of the group node 
                "Product", // the alias of the product Document Type
                0
                );
  string IsbnNumbers = string.Empty;
  foreach (string book in Books)
            {
                IsbnNumbers += "<value>" + book.ISBNNumber + "</value>";
            }
  product.SetValue("books", string.Format("<values>{0}</values>", IsbnNumbers));

I generate one giant string and try to insert this into the multiple textstring field(with the alias of "books"), but when I go to the CMS and check what has been inserted I see one string with "<values><value>9065231390</value><value>8888888888</value></values>" in it instead of two rows with each a number in it.

I have already tried to insert the values comma seperated and hardcoded with the xml i find in the umbraco.config but with no result. I have googled for it and the closest i came to someone with the same problem was someone who "suddenly" got the xml in one field.

Does anyone have some pointers as to how i would be capable of saving multiple strings in a "Multiple text string" field? Am I supposed to create an object in which to put these strings maybe? Or am i missing something completely?

Let me know if you need more information!

Kind regards,

Jeroen
