How to show a message in two lines in the alert() function

Question

I am using alert function to show a message. But I want to show this message in two lines. The message is "The transaction has been approved. Thank you". The code is:

alert('The transaction has been approved. Thank you');

The result should be:

The transaction has been approved.

Thank you

`alert('The transaction has been approved.\n Thank you');` – Pranav C Balan Jun 11 '16 at 17:29 — Pranav C Balan, Jun 11 '16 at 17:29

Just add a newline \n character.

alert('The transaction has been approved.\nThank you');

alert('The transaction has been approved.\n\nThank you');

Actually looks like two(2) new line breaks \n are what you're after, to be specific, per the spacing in your desired output.
