    using quotes in variables

    Hi,

    I use document.write in a HTML-document to display same information. Now I
    have a problem displaying text that sometimes contains two kinds of quotes
    simultanelisly. I don't know on beforehand if this is the situation. See
    example:

    ## ---

    <script language="JavaS cript">
    var a1; // text to display - variable between '
    var a2; // text to display - variable between "

    a1='This text (a1) contains the single (') and the double (") quote and is
    placed between single quotes. How can I display this variable using
    document.write? '

    a2="This text (a2) contains the single (') and the double (") quote and is
    placed between double quotes. How can I display this variable using
    document.write? "

    document.write( ""+a1+" "+a2+"");
    </script>

    ## ---

    Is there possibly another character to use for placing around the text? Or
    any other solution?

    Thanks,

    Sjoerd

      my poor example, view in notepad or what ever, and hope the code goes
      through the post intact..
      <html><head><ti tle></title>
      </head><body text="#000000">
      <script language="JavaS cript"><!--
      var a1='This text (a1) contains the single'
      +'(\')and the double (") quote and is '
      +'placed between single quotes.'
      +'How can I display this variable using '
      +'document.writ e?<br><br>'
      var a2="This text (a2) contains the "
      +"single (') and the double (\") "
      +"quote and is placed between "
      +"double quotes. How can I display "
      +"this variable using "
      +"document.writ e?<br><br>"
      var b1='document.wr ite(\'"+a1"\"+a 2+"\');<br>'
      var b2="document.wr ite(\"'+a1+''+a 2'\");"
      var z=a1+a2+b1+b2;
      with(document){ write(z);} //--></script>
      </body></html>

          document.write( a1, ' ', a2);
