Question

When I pass the string 2cdfdfa2-3639-4aed-bf37-9fb7ba1c936c to a javascript function, I get syntax error in Firebug.

I have my code in a variable before inserting it into a div-tag. I print this out in the Console when I press the DeleteBookmarkFunction. Firebug says there is a syntax error in the call of the function:

<div onclick='DeleteBookmarkFunction('3fad79fb-ce54-4ceb-9b35-cfb50d5540de')'>
  <a class='remove'>Slett</a>
</div>

Some of my code:

var id=data[j].UniqueID;
src += "<div  id='" + data[j].UniqueID + "'></div>" ;

src += "<div onclick=\'DeleteBookmarkFunction  ( \'"
src += id;
src += "\' )\'>";
src += '<a class=\'remove\'>Slett</a></div>';          

What is causing Firebug to report an error?

Answer 1

Use double quotes for attributes

<div onclick="DeleteBookmarkFunction  ( '3fad79fb-ce54-4ceb-9b35-cfb50d5540de' )"><a class="remove">Slett</a></div>
