html - Escaping double quotes in JavaScript

Question

I have this code:

 facetsString += "<td><input type='checkbox' value=facetList[count].term>&nbsp;&nbsp;" + facetList[count].term +  " (" + facetList[count].count + ")" + "</td>";

I'm trying to give each checkbox a unique value facetList[count].term, but I don't know how to escape the double quotes...

Answer 1

Just put a backslash in front of the double-quotes:

facetsString += "<td><input type='checkbox' value="facetList[count] ... " /></td>"

Alternatively, you can wrap the outer in single quotes, and use double quotes for property values:

facetsString += '<td><input type="checkbox" value="facetList[count] ... " /></td>'
