Actually, I'm just gonna go ahead and do everything in the if condition in HTML but inside a hidden element, and then if the condition is true I'll change the visibility of the element.

Ok now I see what you are doing. I know this way sounds really dumb but have you thought of just having it all in a hidden input feild? Its the only way I can see you getting out of the binds of JS.

Then you could just myVal = escape(formname.elementname.value);

If I could use PHP I wouldn't even need to mess with the quotes 'cause I could just do

<?php
(if postid > x)
{

plain html stuff

}
else
{

other html stuff

}
?>

Is there any way to do something like that in JavaScript? I tried but couldn't get it working.

Can't use PHP, unfortunately

escape and unescape won't work because the quotes in the string would break the statement. e.g., escape("This sentance has a "double" quote"); or escape('This sentance has a 'single' quote');

Can you use php?

If so see the php functions addslashes() and stripslashes().

In Javascript you can try using the escape and unescape functions.

Hope that helps.
