I’m populating a datatables cell via Ajax and JSON. To get line breaks in a list of names in a a cell I’ve tried \n and escaped \n (\\n). Neither work.
Thanks

I suspect this is because your cell is HTML so \n ,not being a valid HTML markup, is not causing a line break.
A
<br/>element will likely cause a link break in your case, however without sample code from you it is hard to know.
