I want to replace a big section of html code (the content on the side) with other html code.
I have used the JavaScript code below:
document.getElementById("content").innerHTML = "";
The thing is that I can't replace html code that got the ""
characters in it. Can someone please help me?
I should ad that I´m a beginner with JavaScript and as of now I want to stay away from jQuery.

try with
document.getElementById("content").innerHTML ='text to be replaced with "" ';
or with
document.getElementById("content").innerHTML ="text to be replaced with \"\"";
or with
document.getElementById("content").innerHTML ='text to be replaced with \'\'';
( \" is the escape sequence for the character " and in javascript you can use either ' or " for the strings)
here the jsfiddle sample
