Passing a string to a function

[link9]

Morning --

I need to pass a string with spaces to a javascript function. The call to the function is being written out in asp, but I can't seem to get it to work properly.

Here's an example of the call I'm trying to use (gives me an error each time, but a non-descript 'error on page' message on the status bar)

<a href=&quot;javascript:showAccount('Allen & O'Hara, Inc.');&quot;>

What am I missing here?

thx

Hi link9,

Will work better like that but i'm sure you know it ;-)

<a href=&quot;javascript:showAccount('Allen & O\'Hara, Inc.');&quot;>

Hope this helps ...
