<a title=...>

[forrozeiro]

Hi,

Using the code <a title='description'>desc</a>, I get a square with the text 'description' whenever I put the mouse pointer over 'desc'. Is there a way I can insert line breaks or tabs into the text that is poped up to the user ? Something like:

<!-- this doesn't work -->
<a title='description\nbla\tbla'>desc</a>

And the result being:

description
bla bla

Thank you in advance.

Hi forrozeiro,

Look at my answer in thread215-201579

I didn't test if it also works for &quot;title&quot; but I think it does.

Hope this helps,
Erik

Right. That method doesnt quite work in NS6, and doesnt work in 4 at all as it does not support the

TITLE

method. So ya just have to pick the way that best suits your needs. Suceess, thats the way you spell success!

Thank you guys for your help!
I am sorry for my posting the same question in different fóruns...
Well, I'll use the
solution. I´ve tested it and it worked fine. I cannot simply use the enter from keyboard ( as Dookie2k2 suggested) because the application I am working on uses internationalization. All the text that appears to the user come from a resource bundle file (a .properties file, that uses the linebreak as a separator), it's not inserted directly on the HTML code (I am using JSP).
Thank you again and sorry for my English.

Sorry, I meant &quot;I'll use the & # 1 0 ; solution'.
