concatenation of variables, functions, & strings 3

[MikeDee]

I'm really having troubles dynamically generating the below stuff?

I've tried using the \" \" that doesn't produce errors and also it doesn't seem to display the images??


document.write(&quot;<table width='501' border='0' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0'>&quot;
document.write(&quot;<tr>&quot;
document.write(&quot;<td><img alt =\&quot;dfghgfhgf\&quot; border=0 height=10 src=\&quot;images_topmenu/spacer.GIF\&quot; width=491 onMouseOver=\&quot;MM_showHideLayers('Layer1','','hide','Layer2','','hide','Layer3','','hide','Layer4','','hide','Layer5','','hide')\&quot;></td>&quot;
document.write(&quot;</tr>&quot;
document.write(&quot;<tr>&quot;

document.write(&quot;<td height=16><img&quot;
document.write(&quot;height=17 width=10 src=\&quot;images_topmenu/spacer.GIF\&quot; border=0 onMouseOver=\&quot;MM_showHideLayers('Layer1','','hide','Layer2','','hide','Layer3','','hide','Layer4','','hide','Layer5','','hide')\&quot;><a href=\&quot;news.html\&quot; onMouseOver=\&quot;MM_showHideLayers('Layer1','','show');showMenu1(Layer1);hideMenu(Layer2);hideMenu(Layer3);hideMenu(Layer4);hideMenu(Layer5)\&quot;><img&quot;

couldnt you use single quotes for your javascript strings allowing you to use double quotes for the html strings without \????

hie
be shure that u gave spaces between &quot;<img&quot; & smth else (i mean alt or height..)
u c, if u'll check for ur page src in netscrap (wich shows the result of javascript functions but not the functions themselfes) then u'll c that u have smth like <imgalt=.. or <imgheight=..
so write with space at the end: document.write(&quot;width=86></a><img &quot;); instead of &quot;<img&quot;

I've concatonated a long string with += and then did document.write (mystring). I've found it to be much cleaner, and easier to use variables inside the string. Here's an example I've used.

function showFileProperties(editablePath,viewablePath,strName,fileName,dateCreated,lastAccessed,lastModified,strType,filePath)
{

html = '<div align=&quot;center&quot;><img src=&quot;/intranet/library/icons/dir_belllogo.gif&quot; border=&quot;0&quot;><b>FILE PROPERTIES</b><br>'
html += '<br><a target=&quot;blank&quot; style=&quot;text-decoration: underline; color: #0066CC&quot; href=&quot;'
html += editablePath
html += '&quot;><b>EDIT' + strName + 'online? </b></a></div> <br>You can make changes to this file online by clicking EDIT above, modifying the file and then saving the file. Changes will appear the next time the file is opened.'
html += '<hr style=&quot;border-width:1px; border-color:#000066; border-style: thin&quot;'
html += '<br> Name:' + fileName
html += '<br> File Type:' + strType
html += '<br> Created:' + dateCreated
html += '<br> Last Accessed:' + lastAccessed
html += '<br> Last Modified:' + lastModified
html += '<br> Location:' + viewablePath
html += ''
document.write(html)
} Catch the vigorous horse of your mind!
