如何获取这些HTML标签以从javascript呈现

Question

Noob question alert! So, I've got this script, which loops through an array and adds a <br> tag to the end of each array item. But i dont know the proper way of displaying this output on my page. Currently, when it loads the <br> tags show up on screen, whereas I want them to render as line-breaks. It is outputting into a <textarea> if that makes a difference. Thanks a bunch.

var outputLinkText = document.getElementById('outputLinkText');
var outputStageOne = "";

for (var i = 0; i < arrayOne.length; i++) {
    outputStageOne += (arrayOne[i] + "<br>");
}   

if ( 'textContent' in timePlace ) {
    outputLinkText.textContent = outputStageOne;
}
else {
    outputLinkText.innerText = outputStageOne;
}

Answer 1

<textarea> tags don't support <br> tags (or any other HTML tags) within their contents. They only hold plain text.

You need to add "\\n" as the separator instead.

(Strictly, it should be "\\r\\n" but a "\\n" on its own is usually sufficient)

Answer 2

Yes the textarea is a difference, try this :

"\\r\\n" instead of "<br>"
