To add special characters (quotes, apostrophes, etc) to a text string in JavaScript , we have to use a backslash sign.
The following JavaScript code will throw an "Object Expected" error:
//
var msg = "I am a "good" boy." ;
alert(msg);
//
The problem is JavaScript, a string is started and stopped with a double quotes.
To solve, we could rewrite the above script , by placing the backslash ("\") before each special character. This makes the entire string as a literal.
To solve this problem, you must place a backslash (\) before each double quote in " good ". This turns each double quote into a string literal:
//
var msg = "I am a \"good\" boy." ;
alert(msg);
//
