I\'m using jquery, and I have a textarea. When I submit by my button I will alert each text separated by newline. How to split my text when there is a newline?

Answer 1

you don't need to pass any regular expression there. this works just fine..

 (function($) {
      $(document).ready(function() {
        $('#data').click(function(e) {
          e.preventDefault();
          $.each($("#keywords").val().split("\n"), function(e, element) {
            alert(element);
          });
        });
      });
    })(jQuery);
