From: nameless on 11 Jan 2010 16:42 Hi at all. With this code ( below ), I insert in the tag with "results" as identifier, the data that I retrieve from ajax function ( json structure "data" in below" ). But when "data.books[i].name" is a string with apostrophes, the function onclick doesn't work !! How can I resolve this issue ? Thanks :) e = document.getElementById('results'); for(i=0; i<data.books.length; i++) { e.innerHTML += "<li><a href=\"#\" onclick=\"document.getElementById (\'search-q\').value='" + data.books[i].name + "';\" >" + data.books [i].name + "</a></li> "; }

If you look at the html again, you'll see why you can't have this: =''' Jeff > }
