Question

firstly, I must apologize for bad english, it’s not my main language.

I’m using MySQL DB. So, I have a multiline string inside a DB. I read it in servlet and pass in jsp. In jsp I’m using something like this:

<script>
var foo = {
... 
title: "<c:out value="${myMultilineString}"/>",
... 
}
</script>

but is doesn’t works.

I tried to change source string like this:

1)”line1

line2″
on page it look like this:

title:”line1

line2″ this is an error

2)”line1\nline2″ no errors, but string isn’t multiline.

Answer 1

The html tag for changing line is < br />.

So try replacing your \n from database with < br /> and then assign it to tittle
