I'd total agree with what Michael said. Infact HTML coding guidelines and
W3C Standards say that HTML quotes should be double "
Also as a PHP developer I tend to use single quotes ' for programming, but
that's because in PHP it doesn't use the parse engine looking for varibles,
but thats a different topic ;) So I tend to also use single quotes in
Javascript, it's just easier that way.
