How to select text from a multiline textbox with the line breaks in Jquery?
<pre><code>&lt;textarea style="height: 300px;"  class="jqueryFindBody" cols="20" rows="2"&gt;
1
2
3
&lt;/textarea&gt;
</code></pre>

<p></p>

<p>In the asp.net textbox above, if I replace its text with its own text, the line breaks get lost</p>

<pre><code> $('.jqueryFindBody').text($('.jqueryFindBody').text());
</code></pre>

<p>I tried using html instead of text, but the line breaks are always lost. How do I preserve the line breaks?</p>
