Question

I\'ve got an issue with jquery where I set the html of a div using the html method, but it does not set it correctly.

Here\'s the stripped down code I\'m using:

Answer 1

You forgot to quote your href attribute.

Therefore, it stopped parsing the href's value after the first space.

You need to write the following:

$('#results').html(
"
DM
"
);

The \" creates a " inside a double-quoted string.
