Comment:

 Reopening this as the comment doesn't address it at all I'm afraid.

     Answering your last question first, generally it's not safe, and you
 shouldn't do this. escapejs is just to put put escape sequences into
 strings.

 What does "put escape sequences into strings" ''mean''? That is precisely
 what I was doing in my example above, which you just said was wrong.

 As far as I can see, actually it is safe. If it isn't, can anyone explain
 why and, more importantly, explain what escapejs ''should'' be used for.
