I want to use a variable in a string. I have tried to do it many times, but it is only getting the variable name.

<head>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.7.2.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
       $(function(){
          $("a").click(function(){
           var id= $(".id").html();
           $('.html').html("<div class='new' id=+id+>jitender</div>")
             });
       });
    </script>
</head>
<body>
   <div class="wrap">
      <a href="#">Make Html</a>
      <div class="html"></div>
      <div class="id">first</div>
   </div>
</body>

    Concatenating can be done with + as follows.

    $(".html").html('<div class="new" id="' + id + '">jitender</div>");

    or in the modern world you can use template strings:

    $(".html").html(`<div class="new" id="${id}">jitender</div>`);

    The more jQuery-oriented approach would be:

    var id = "some-id";

$("<div>", {
    "class": "new",
    id: id,
    text: "jitender"
}).appendTo(".html");
    .new {
    background: #f0f;
}
#some-id {
    color: #fff;
}
    <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="html"></div>
