How to give space or next line feature in javascript?

Here is my java script code:

function for_approve(){
var approve = confirm(format_stock_id.length + 
               "&nbsp;Stock Record(s) is selected for approval.<br /> 
               Do You Want to send it for Approval");

}

It gives me result as:

3 &nbsp;Stock Record(s) is selected for approval.<br />Do You Want to send it for Approval

What should i do for space and new line.

Use the \n symbol:

function for_approve(){
  var approve = confirm(format_stock_id.length + 
               " Stock Record(s) is selected for approval.\n 
               Do You Want to send it for Approval");

}

You can check this right here. Open console in your browser and write: alert("bob\nbob");

P.S.: Same for space. You don't have to use escape-query &nbsp;. Just use (simple space).

use:

\xa0

space

\n

new line

your code will be:

function for_approve(){
   var approve = confirm(format_stock_id.length + "\xa0 Stock Record(s) is selected for approval.\n Do You Want to send it for Approval");
}

If you wanted to make the sentence a little neater with regard to plurals, you could do this:

if (format_stock_id.length == 1) {
    var approve = confirm("1 Stock Record is selected for approval.\n 
    Do You Want to send it for Approval");
} else {
    var approve = confirm(format_stock_id.length + " Stock Records are selected for approval.\n
    Do You Want to send them for Approval");
}

Little things like that make a good amount of difference in the final product.

You can use the JS Escape Characters in a string (ref: http://www.w3schools.com/js/default.asp) :

\'  single quote
\"  double quote
\\  backslash
\n  new line
\r  carriage return
\t  tab
\b  backspace
\f  form feed

To jump to next line you need to use \n and for space no need to to write &nbsp, simply write whitespace character,


function for_approve(){
var approve = confirm(format_stock_id.length + " Stock Record(s) is selected for approval.\n Do You Want to send it for Approval");
}
