I found a solution. Titles were appended to a string which was being transfered around, with different ways of presenting apostrophes. So I stopped moving the info around and queried the database (the place where all the data is stored), with an index ID. Longer route, but at least the client now gets to have apostrophes.

Tony,

My question was somewhat sarcastic -- if javascript can read the string in order to fix it, then there is no need for the function.

Could you supply examples of what the text looks like, where it's coming from, and where it's being received -- a url? html?

>>Are you asking for a javascript function that will replace quotes that may cause javascript problems????

Yes. I have multiple interface views (Flash and HTML) connected to an app, each handling quotes differently, so the scenario becomes a little more complex.

Hi Tony,

I'm sort of confused. Are you asking for a javascript function that will replace quotes that may cause javascript problems????

Where is your text coming from? If server-side (a dbms, eg), why can't you handle it from that end? If client-side, why aren't you handling it before passing it (by escaping the quotes -- "He said: 'she said: \"Sometimes I\'m confused.\" ' "
