javascript - Data extracted from a csv file from server is missing new line character -

i loading csv file server on client through ajax call , parsing list of lines. however, code cannot find newline character , treats entire file 1 line.

here code

$.ajax({ url: "./data.csv", success: function(data) {             var lines = data.split("\n");            // tried did not work            // var lines = data.split(/\r\n|\n/);             console.log(lines.length); // output 1         }     }); 

here csv (note: delimiter ; instead of , shouldn't cause issue)

category;title;description;price;additional breakfast;traditional breakfast;flour tortilla, scrambled eggs, jack cheese, mild sauce;3.95 breakfast;traditional breakfast;flour tortilla, scrambled eggs, sausage jack cheese, mild sauce;5.95 

any ideas?

have check format of csv file? maybe use lf instead of cf newline. try this:

$.ajax({url: "./data.csv", success: function(data) {   var lines = data.replace("\r\n", "\n").replace("\r", "\n").split("\n");   // rest of code });
