Including line breaks in HTML attributes

Question

I have an HTML textarea with a "placeholder" attribute that includes the code for a line break, &\#10;. It works fine on Chrome, but the line break is ignored on other browsers. What is causing this inconsistency, and how do I work around it?

Answer 1

Include the line break naturally with the keyboard enter? Like it is shown in this image, click to see it.

If it does not work, try inserting your place holder text via javascript?
