Insert Special Characters Using JavaScriptIntroduction
Before explaining the article, I would like to thank all readers who read my article and voted for it.
Your appreciation for my article gives me strength to write more good articles. Hope in future I will get your valuable comments and suggestions.
Now I won't waste your time and come back to the topic. I have written this article on ‘Insert Special Characters’. The backslash (\) is used to insert apostrophes, new lines, quotes, and other special characters into a text string.
Look at the following JavaScript code:
var txt="We are from “DotNetLogix" technical team;
document.write(txt);
In JavaScript, a string is started and stopped with either single or double quotes. This means that the string above will be chopped to: We are the so-called
To solve this problem, you must place a backslash (\) before each double quote in "Viking". This turns each double quote into a string literal:
var txt="We are from\"DotNetLogix\" technical team.";
document.write(txt);
JavaScript will now output the proper text string: We are the so-called "Vikings" from the north.
Here is another example:
document.write ("You \& Us can improve our skills!");
The example above will produce the following output:
"You & Us can improve our skills!
Thanks.....
