How can I use a carriage return in a HTML tooltip?
Currently if I want to insert a new line in title=, I would do this:
<span id="dummy" title="Hello
World!">Dummy</span>
Live demo: http://jsfiddle.net/DerekL/XFMfx/
But this looks really weird to me, and it just messes up my HTML file. Just imagine all those new lines in it.
So I'm wondering if there is a better way to achieve this, so that it won't mess it up.
Thanks.

If the title attribute's value contains "LF" (U+000A) characters, the content is split into multiple lines. Each "LF" (U+000A) character represents a line break.
To do a line break in HTML, use the <br> tag. Simply place the tag wherever you want to force a line break. Since an HTML line break is an empty element, there's no closing tag.
This is not possible. There are no cross-browser solutions. If you want a line break in your title attribute, you'll have to use JavaScript.

As of Firefox 12 (which is the current Aurora version), this is (finally) supported. See the related bug.
