Question

How should I quote this:

<tr onclick="$.colorbox({href:'information1.html'});">

When put in an echo " "; ?

I have tried this:

echo "<tr onclick='$.colorbox({href:'information1.html'});'>";

Which shows a Jquery error.

And I tried this:

echo "<tr onclick="$.colorbox({href:'information1.html'});">";

Which shows a PHP error.

Any workarounds? Thanks

You need to escape the quotes symbols:

echo '<tr onclick="$.colorbox({href:\"information1.html\"});">'

Note that using inline script is not considered to be a good practice!

echo '<tr class="foo">'

In the javascript code:

$('.foo').click(function() {
    $.colorbox({ href: "information1.html" });
});​
