How to write quotation marks in JavaScript

Question

Hi I want to do the following, but don\'t know how to write the quotation marks

allSearchResults[0]=\"
 CXS101289/

        

Answer 1

Another, newer and very nice method: Use "multiline strings"!

Writing it like this, with a backtick at the beginning and end of the string, you can use anything you like inside, and even make use of variable substitution:

let b = "myvar value";
let x = `
    <li class="myclass" onclick="myFunc('${b}')">
        ${b}
    </li>
`;

That case is hard to do otherwise, mixing quotation marks within the string.

Answer 2

allSearchResults[0]="<li><a href='CXS101289/'> CXS101289/</a></li>";

or

allSearchResults[0]='<li><a href="CXS101289/"> CXS101289/</a></li>';

or

allSearchResults[0]="<li><a href=\"CXS101289/\"> CXS101289/</a></li>";

Answer 3

Two ways ^{times two}

1. mix single and double quotes:

   // single outside, double inside quotes
   allSearchResults[0] = '<li><a href="CXS101289/">CXS101289/</a></li>';
   

   or

   // double outside, single inside quotes
   allSearchResults[0] = "<li><a href='CXS101289/'>CXS101289/</a></li>";
   

2. use one set of quotes but escape inside ones:

   // double escaped quotes
   allSearchResults[0] = "<li><a href=\"CXS101289/\">CXS101289/</a></li>";
   

   or

   // single escaped quotes
   allSearchResults[0] = '<li><a href=\'CXS101289/\'>CXS101289/</a></li>';
   

First approach with mixing is usually easier, because it presents less work since you only have to change the opening and closing quote.

Answer 4

you can escape them like:

allSearchResults[0]="<li><a href=\"CXS101289/\"> CXS101289/</a></li>";

or use the other quotes :

allSearchResults[0]="<li><a href='CXS101289/'> CXS101289/</a></li>";

Answer 5

Just escape the quotes inside the a tag.

allSearchResults[0]="<li><a href=\"CXS101289/\"> CXS101289/</a></li>";
