How to save the value of textarea to JSON?

I have a textarea; I need to save value of that text area into a js object.

Its working fine if there is no 'enter'(line break) pressed. How to save it and and retrieve it as such with linebreaks.

Used this code to make it HTML

var newText = $('textarea').val(); //value
newText = newText.replace(/\r?\n/g, '<br />');

i think this code can help you !

$(document).ready(function(){
var textarea = $('textarea').val();
var linebreak = textarea.split('\n');
var length = linebreak.length;
var data = [];
for ( var i = 0 ; i<length ; i++){
    data.push({ 'line': i , 'content': linebreak[i] });
    console.log(data);
}

});
