如何保留换行符？

Question

On jsp page I get content by ajax and put the result into html

$('#somediv').html(html);

From server side I send content: there is some text,<br/>and from here it starts from the next line

How to preserve line breaks in page? Now they display just like text.

Answer 1

You can use jQuery.parseHTML()

var htmlParsed=jQuery.parseHTML(html);
$('#somediv').html(htmlParsed);

Answer 2

In your AJAX call you can specify that you're expecting HTML. For example:

$.ajax({
    url: "your-url.html",
    type: "GET",
    dataType: "html",
    success: function (data) {
        $('#somediv').html(data);
    }
});
