Hi,
Try adding a '\' before "\n" to escape the backslash, like this:
String strMes="test\\ntest";
That'll do,

Subject: "\n" problem in jsp
Hi All,
I have one String variable in jsp.
value of that variable contains "\n".
When I tried to give alert message of that varible's value(using java
script),i'm getting problem
for eg my jsp is
<%
String strMes="test\ntest";
%>
<script language=javascript>
<%
out.println("alert(\""+strMes +"\");");
%>
</script>
once it is translated i'm getting html Output as
<script language=javascript>
alert("test
test");
</script>
Therefore it is showing error at line 2 .error is " ) expected or
unterminated string constant".
but my desired output is
<script language=javascript>
alert("test\ntest");
</script>
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance
Vadivel
