I changed the code to:
    thisComment = result.comments[i].commentText.split("\n");
    for(j = 0; j < thisComment.length; ++j) {
      appendChildNodes(commentDiv, P({'class' : 'commentText'},
                                   thisComment[j]));
    }

That solves my problem nicely. ;-}
At the moment I do not want HTML-tags in commentText to work, but if I
wanted that: how would I do that?
