javascript_howto thread: carriage return

alert("Some string\nNew line with another string");

Note the new line character (\n). You can also use \r for return, \t for tab
etc

Subject: [javascript_howto] carriage return


I have 2 strings I am putting into a message box (window.alert).  I want 
to put a carriage reutn/line feed between them.  I know how to do it in 
ASP, but it is not working cause I am writing to a webpage and it just 
makes the source code contain the carriage return and line feed versus 
passing it on to the Javascript to pass onto the alert(messagebox)  If 
anyone has a know how of how to just print an ascii character in 
Javascript, that would be appreciative.

Thanks in advance.

Chris
