Problem with populating text into UI element

Hi I need to enter data into a text field in exactly the same format as in the action. How can I do it so it is not written on one line?

    Use Send keys and add {Enter} for each line break.

    Use Focus text field on web page and then use Send keys, but send it to the foreground window, instead of a specific UI element. Sending it to a UI element only works for local applications, and not web pages.
