Add line break to after or before pseudo-element content

Question

I do not have access to the HTML or PHP for a page and can only edit via CSS  I ve been doing modifications on a site and adding text via the   after or   before pseudo-elements and have found that escape Unicode should be used for things such as a space before or after the added content  How do I add multiple lines in the content property  In example the HTML break line element is only to visualize what I would like to achieve   headerAgentInfoDetailsPhone  after     content   Office  XXXXX  lt br   gt  Mobile  YYYYY

For people who will going to look for  How to change dynamically content on pseudo element adding new line sign  here s answer  Html chars like  amp  13  amp  10  will not work appending them to html using JavaScript because those characters are changed on document render  Instead you need to find unicode representation of this characters which are U 000D and U 000A so we can do something like    x000D   x000D  var el   document querySelector  div    x000D  var string   el getAttribute  text   replace         u000D u000A    x000D  el setAttribute  text   string   x000D  div before  x000D     content  attr text   x000D     white-space  pre  x000D    x000D   lt div text  I want to break it in javascript  after comma sign  gt  lt  div gt   x000D   x000D   x000D    Hope this save someones time  good luck

The content property states      Authors may include newlines in the generated content by writing the   A  escape sequence in one of the strings after the  content  property  This inserted line break is still subject to the  white-space  property  See  Strings  and  Characters and case  for more information on the   A  escape sequence    So you can use    headerAgentInfoDetailsPhone after     content  Office  XXXXX  A Mobile  YYYYY      white-space  pre     or pre-wrap        http   jsfiddle net XkNxs   When escaping arbitrary strings  however  it s advisable to use  00000a instead of  A  because any number or  a-f  character followed by the new line may give unpredictable results   function addTextToStyle id  text      return     id   after   content     text replace    g         replace   n g     00000a
