Replace comma seperation with new line (jQuery JavaScript Library)

Question

I am using the following example code here: http://jsbin.com/ujuse

It uses the jQuery JavaScript Library.

How can I change it so that when you select a tick box, the comma is replaced with a new line instead? I need the text area to display:

one_name

one_name1

one_name2

Not as it does at the moment:

one_name,one_name1,one_name2

If anyone could help that would be brilliant as I have tried to download and edit the jQuery JavaScript Library myself with no success.

You can use .join(), like this:

$('#t').val(allVals.join('\n'))

You can test it here. What's happening currently is since you're passing in an array to a string property, it's basically calling .toString(), which has the same effect as .join(','), you can use a delimiter of your choice though, like newline in the code above.
