[jQuery] IE7innerHTML and text normalization
Hi All,
I'm trying to replace all linebreaks with html <br />, but due html
normalization with the innerHTML propery in IE7 the following piece of
code won't work in IE7
<div id="text">
thingy 1
thingy 2
</div>
<script>
var str = $('#text').html();
$('#text').html(str.replace(/\n/g, "<br />"));
</script>
(description of the normalization bug:

Does anyone has a crossbrowser workaround or another solution to this
problem?
Thanx in advance!
