So an array walks into a dynamic text field and says… oh wait…

I have an array that I am trying to output into a dynamic text field via this function:

```auto

Barcelona = ["Barcelona:", "Apple", "25 - ", "2"];

Output_Array = function(array_name)
{
    for(i=0; i<array_name.length; i++)
    {
        output_txt.text += array_name*
        output_txt.text += " "
    }
}

```

It outputs the array just fine, but what I want to do is add in a line break here and there to make it more beautiful. In the dynamic text field properties there is an option for “Render text as HTML”. With the option checked I tried adding in \<br\> and/or \<p\> HTML tags but all it does is prints out the “\<br\>” instead of making a new line. (I also have the text field set to Multiline.)

Is there anyway to get it to have a line break?
