Line break in title tag

[jimRedfield]

Can I add a line break in a title, as called for below, after "HERE?"

<img src="..test.jpg" "title="I want a line break HERE THIS should be on the lower line."/>

Thanks. - Jim

No you cannot.

If you want formatting, you will need to use a tool tip of some sort. qTip is a nice relatively simple tool that I have used for this sort of thing.

Hi there jimRedfield,

yes you certainly can.

Try it like this...

title="I want a line break HERE
THIS should be on the lower line."

The code has been tested in IE9, Firefox 13, Opera 11.62 and Safari 5.1.7.

napOleon - No harm, no foul re the wrong answer. ...I, of course, never make mistakes like that. :-)

coothead - Thanks for the code - works like a charm.

Do either of you know if additional formatting can be done to title tags? Things like a better spec for the box background color, corners, lines, etc.?

Again, help appreciated. No need to respond if there's nothing to add. - Jim

To the best of my knowledge, no.

As our friend nap0leon suggested, CSS tooltips would be the method to use.

It is not working with me in Firefox 16 and Chrome 23. Any clue?

Hi there adamdani,

and a warm to these forums.

...It is not working with me...

Please read post #11 for an explanation as to why.

Please correct me

I have used the code:

title="I want a line break HERE
THIS should be on the lower line."

But, this is the happen

I would go about it differently:
<h1>THIS IS THE FIRST LINE<br />
THIS IS THE SECOND LINE</h1>
A great place to learn is www.w3schools.com

Wow - wonder when support for this started... It was a few years ago when I tried to do this and instead went with qTip.

Tested this in IE, Chrome, Safari, Firefox (latest versions 2012-11-27):
& #13; (Without space between & and #)

Works in all of them...

Interesting. Wonder if you can break down &&#35;13; or explain what it stands for? Looks like a special character &____; code inside another ?

[coothead]

Hi there auntnini,

when I made that post on the 18th June the code was...

&#13

...which is what MortenManden also suggested today.

Since my post, the forums have gone through an upgrade and I can only assume that is the cause of &#35;13;
