Html Label Inserting Newline

I'm trying to set some text to a label dynamically using jQuery. But i can't get the or \n to render and give me new lines. It all shows up on the same line and wraps. h

Solution 1:

text() will escape any html code, so instead use html()

$("#myLabel").html("This is my first line <br /> This should be my second line.");

Solution 2:

The problem is that .text() will ignore your html. You should use .html(), soy u can put whatever html you want inside an element. So you'd have:

$('#myLabel').html('This is my first line <br/> This should be my second line.');

Hope this helps. Cheers

Solution 3:

Try this instead:

$('#myLabel')
    .html('this is my first line<br/>This should be my second line.');
