JavaScript String Halp

[Goldensapling]

Yo, I'm absolute garbage at JavaScript (although I'm familiar with Java), and I'm trying to get multi-line strings to work in an array.

I'm trying to print each string on a new line, but I honestly have no clue how to in JavaScript

btw the random stuff is to cycle through a bunch of strings in the array

 

Here's my current trashy code : 

<p><script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
    <!--
        var kits = new Array ();
        kits[0] =     "THE TROLL" +
                    "" +
                    "> Airdrop";
    
        
        var i = Math.floor(0*Math.random())
        document.write('<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 32px">' + kits[i] + '</span>');
    //-->
    </script></p>

Did you try a newline?

kits[0] = "THE TROLL\n" + "\n" + "> Airdrop";

If not, this might work:

kits[0] = "THE TROLL<br><br>"+"> Airdrop";

You don't have to declare an array in javascript you can simply type:

 

var kits = {"THE TROLL", "", "> Airdrop"};

 

That would leave you with an array of kits(0), kits(1), kits(2).

Plus a for loop would work better to display the array:

 

var count = 0;

for (count = 0; count < 3; count++)

{

     document.write('<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 32px">' + kits[count] + '</span>');

}

 

this should work but let me know if it doesn't

\n doens't work, but <br> did

 

Thank you based HPWebcamAble

Thank you for the declaring advice, but as for a for loop, the point is to randomize between the array, not to print the whole array

I didn't know you were going for randomization, my bad.
