How to handle single quotation mark....
Dear experts..
i have a JSP page with the following code calling a JavaScript function...
<A href="javascript:checkPage
it is a hyperlink...whenever i click this hyperlink..the Javascript will submit the form with the parameter to the Java Servlet to search for the details in hashtable based on this key:
CH'NG BENG GUAN
it is a person's name with a single quot mark (') in the third position..the problem is that JavaScript will give this as an error as this :
Line: 1
Cahr: 15
Error: expected ')'
so is there any special character we need to place together with the single quotation mark..so that Javascript can pass it to the function successfully...
it is quite urgent...pls give the solution asap..tq

How do you handle e.g. the next line:
document.writeln('<A href="javascript:checkPage
The string inside, which includes both single and double quote, comes from c-code and I cannot change it.

This question has been abandoned. I will make a recommendation to the moderators on its resolution in a week or so. I appreciate any comments that would help me to make a recommendation.
In the absence of responses, I may recommend DELETE unless it is clear to me that it has value as a PAQ. Silence = you don't care
