Mitchell, the concept of single vs double quotes is more of a javascript question. The simple answer is that there's no difference really. It is easier to type an html string if you use single quotes: Single: var html = '<a href="#">link</a>'; Double: var html = "<a href\"#\">link</a>'; But sometimes you might want to use double instead: Single: var str = 'I\'m in love'; Double: var str = "I'm in love"; So just use whichever you feel is better for the situation. Some people are used to single quotes representing characters, whereas others think html = double quotes, javascript = single quotes. ~Sean
