new line javascript

divText = window.opener.document.createTextNode('YOUR CHOİCE \n Start Day : '+val1);

I cant put a newline by this code but when I write \r instead of \n it works.However newline doesnt work.What can ı do??

function addElement1()

    {

        var divElement;

        var divParent;

        var divText;

                var val1 = this.popupsend.startday.value;

                var text='YOUR CHOİCE \nStart Day :';



        divElement = window.opener.document.createElement("div");

        divText = window.opener.document.createTextNode(text+val1);

        divParent = window.opener.document.getElementById("divParent");



                divElement.style.color = "#FF0000";

                divElement.style.fontSize = "20pt";

                divElement.style.fontStyle = "italic";

                divElement.style.textAlign = "center";

                divElement.appendChild(divText);

        divParent.appendChild(divElement);

    }

Here is the code.I got the problem. Newline character doesnt work without pre tag in javascript.But this way,How will I be able to put a pre tag??? Because I am preparing the text in this child window and sending it to the parent...

Use <br/> if you want a new line presentationally (as rendered by the browser for the client). If your concern is a new line in source view, than the newline should work for you.

Sorry the other code didn't work for you, but I intentionally tried to clarify your request up front, and you agreed it was correct. Presenting your issues clearly is something you need to work on.
