Question

I am using a onclick function that stores a character in

 $itemid=1;
 $storeid=3;
 $status='rejected';

  <a class="blue" href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="status('.$itemid.','.$storeid.','.$status.')" >

But right now it shows an error in firebug

  rejected is not defined

  status(1, 3, rejected);

My feeling is that it should pass the string – rejected as

status(1,3,'rejected')

I have tried to represent the function as shown below

 onclick="status('.$itemid.','.$storeid.','".$status."')

but its not working… Can any one suggest a solution for this please..

Answer 1

This should work (note the backslash to escape the quote)

<a class="blue" href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="status('.$itemid.','.$storeid.',\''.$status.'\')" >
