Hey Luke,

Try to read single line from the text file and add a new line symbol to
your string:

var yourText=3D "the first line of your Text" + "\n";
yourText+=3D"the second line of your Text" +"\n";

Betreff: [javascript] Open Read File


Hi,
Can you point me in the right direction,
I want to open a text file, read in a block of text, assign this to a
variable and then document.write this in a .html page.
The problem is trying to get the text into a variable. If I just assign
it
(var text=3D"....";) when the text comes to the end of the first line I
just
get "unterminated string". How do I go about this?
Thanks in advance,
Luke
