how to add line break to a var string in JS

Question

User-775831949 posted

I have this JS and the alert gives the result in several lines based on "\n" as desired

alert(selected1 + "\n" + selected2);

Now I change to use model instead of

 var modalMsg = selected1 + "\n" + selected2 ;
 $('.modal-body').text(modalMsg);

There is no line break between selected 1 and selected2 when displaying, pls help what do I need to do to display the line break.

Thanks
