Quote kills nifty description field in javascript, how to prevent?
I had a nice website that displays pictures, and as it happens to be thee are
of course some quotes and double quotes involved. I noticed at a certain moment
that the stuff I did (it's a google map with markers) did not display any more.
I first thought it was caused by the intertubes, but apparently somebody had
put a quote in the description which caused the javascript to fail.
this is the resulting HTML :
google.maps.event.addListener(marker0, 'click', function() {
// $(a[rel=marker0]).fancybox(
$.fancybox( [
{ href: /PH/digitalassets/2/6/c/92.jpg, title: From Idan York @
chiuki.com: Rowing on the Nieuwe Prinsengracht at the Onbekendegracht toward
the Amstel, beside Carre' Theatre, the Sluises and the Magerebrug.} ,
],
The quote in the title field, before Theatre, is causing mayhem for the
javascript.
So my humble question is: how do I prevent the quote that is in the description
field of the record to be displayed as a quote? I thought I could get away with
escapeHTML=YES, but that did not change the outcome. Here is my current code:
a rel=markerwo:WOString value = $counter/ href=wo:WOString value
=$tmpPicture.pictureattachment.webPath/ title=wo:WOString value
=$tmpPicture.description escapeHTML=YES/ /a
Oh yes, and answer in 10 minutes, quick!

Hi John,
Any reason why you would not use a WOGenericContainter for the 'a' element and
provide bindings that way, with logic, such as
StringEscapeUtils.escapeJavaScript(..) that escapes the title text?
BTW, StringEscapeUtils.escapeJavaScript(..) resides in
Wonder/ERJars/commons-lang-2.5.jar
Regards, Kieran

Perhaps because I did not know of such a possibility?
Thanks for the tip, I will try to find out the right incantation. If I am not
here the coming days, you know why that is.
35 minutes round trip BTW, do not ever do that again. Post your answer but send
it of with a default timelag of at least 8 hours. Otherwise people might start
to rely on the Kelleher Quick Response Task Force.
