NewLine escape character not working
html, javascript, newline
Solution
This has nothing to do with JavaScript. In HTML, all whitespace (including newlines) is collapsed and treated as a single space.
To do a line break in HTML:
- Use `<br>`
- Or organize your text into paragraphs with `<p>...</p>`, etc.)
- Or if you're outputting some form of formatted text (like code), you can do that in a `<pre>...</pre>` element (or any element with the `white-space: pre`, `white-space: pre-wrap`, or `white-space: pre-line` style applied to it).
Problem
We know that \n is used to feed a new line in JavaScript. How should I use it for an output (in a for-loop): ``` str=prompt("Enter any string!"); for(i=0;i<str.length;i++) { document.write('\n'+str.charCodeAt(i)); } ``` or ``` str=prompt("Enter any string!"); for(i=0;i<str.length;i++) { document.write('\n'+str.charCodeAt(i)); } ``` Neither seems to work.
