inporting many lines of HTML through javascript

I want to do this

The problem is that the msg variables sees the '\n' character and prompts and error. If I put all the HTML code of the variable in one line works OK but inside the msg variable I plan to put complex HTML code so the ability to put it in multiple line is essential how can I do this?

There's another workaround, if you use like Notepad++ or PSPAD, you could use a single line HTML in a variable and replace the "\n" to let's say "<!--NEWLINE--> in your HTML. So whenever you need to work in it you just replace the <!--NEWLINE--> to "\n" and the opposite. This is not the best solution, but it works ;)

i wrote a couple firefox batches to help.
just go to the link, click the "x" tab on the left.
then paste in your text, click "run", and click back on the "y" tab to view the results.

this string quoter one converts text into this format:
this slash adder produces the format shown by canabeez.

the JSONString version is an old standby, though it makes it hard to read.
