Programming for beginners: JavaScript: Represent multi line strings

Some times strings in your application may span across multiple lines. In this case, we need to break the string, so that it is completely visible in single page.

There are two ways to represent multi line strings.

a. Using + operator

b. Using \ symbol

Using + operator

var str1 = "Some times strings in your application may span across multiple lines." +
    "In this case, we need to break the string, so that it is completely " +
    "visible in single page.";

Using \ symbol

var str2 = "Some times strings in your application may span across multiple lines. \
   In this case, we need to break the string, so that it is completely \
   visible in single page.";

string.html

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>

<head>
    <title>strings</title>
</head>

<body>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        var str1 = "Some times strings in your application may span across multiple lines." +
            "In this case, we need to break the string, so that it is completely " +
            "visible in single page.";

        var str2 = "Some times strings in your application may span across multiple lines. \
        In this case, we need to break the string, so that it is completely \
        visible in single page.";

        document.write(str1 + "<br />");
        document.write(str2 + "<br />");
    </script>
</body>

</html>
