[jQuery] having a problem with ' and strings
hello jquery community,
i am getting some strings from a page i don't have influence on. i
just append those to elements (thanks to jquery this works like a
charm!):
$("#searchResultList").append("<li class='searchResultEntry'id='" +
videoId + "' title='" + titleFull + " (" + minutes + ":" + seconds +
")'><img src='" + thumbnailUrl + "' class='thumbnail' alt='" +
titleFull + " (" + minutes + ":" + seconds + ")'/></li>");
my problem is:
sometimes the variable "title" contains a ' in the string, like
"doesn't that look funny..." in this case my output get's completely
messed up.
is there a more reliable way to use ' and " ? any ideas how i could
prevent ' to crack this up?
thanks in advance
dirk
