Replacing " with \" in ASP

As the title suggests, I am trying to replacing a " with the escape character \". The reason I am doing this is because there is a quote in my string that represents inches and this string needs to be run through javascript code.

However, when I run my string in the javascript code, it only reads up to the inches character and forgets the rest of the string.

Any and all help is greaty appreciated.

If you define like this var s = 'some string';, the quote is work ok, but if you do like var s = "some string";, you should replace the quote to \", so the code is var s = "some string \ " with the quote"; also you need to replace the Vbcrlf and vbcr and vblf before the JS code

A function like this will escape \, " and ':

function AddSlashes(str)
    AddSlashes = replace(str,"\","\\")
    AddSlashes = replace(AddSlashes,"'","\'")
    AddSlashes = replace(AddSlashes,chr(34),"\" & chr(34))
end function
