Adding HTML code with Single Quotes inside jQuery

I am trying to add this HTML/JavaScript code into a jQuery variable. I've managed to insert double quotes by writing is with a backshlash \", however the same tactic didn't work for the single quotes:

ajaxData += '<div class=\"menu-item-' + $(this).attr('div') + 'onclick=\"alert('Jquery Function');\"></div>';

Specifically, this part onclick=\"alert('Jquery Function');

Anyone know how I can go around this?

This is are you trying to do?

$var = "ajaxData += '<div class=\"menu-item-' + \$(this).attr('div') + '" onclick=\"alert(\'Jquery Function\');\"></div>';"

See this, its beautiful:

ajaxData += '<div class="menu-item-' + $(this).attr('div') + ' onclick="alert(\'Jquery Function\');"></div>';

ajaxData += '<div class="menu-item-' + $(this).attr('div') + 'onclick="alert('Jquery Function');"></div>';

add escape \ for single quotes. if your string is within single quotes then you can use double quotes without escape but if using single quotes within single quote then you have to insert escape character
