Javascript alert with parameter

I'm trying to make a function in javascript and pass in the parameter "name", then when the user clicks on a photo, an alert will say something like "this photo was taken in ____"

<img src="photos/PhotoVersailles.jpg" onclick="photoWhere(Versailles)" style="width:100%">

<script type="text/javascript">
function photoWhere(name)
    {
        alert("This photo was taken in "+name+".");
    }
</script>

Why isn't my attempt working?

Try 'Versailles' when passing as parameter 

function photoWhere(name) {
  alert("This photo was taken in " + name + ".");
}
<img src="photos/PhotoVersailles.jpg" onclick="photoWhere('Versailles')" alt="not found" style="width:100%">

you can use this:

function photoWhere(Pic) { var _pic = Pic.name; _pic = "This photo was taken in "+_pic+"." alert(_pic); }
<img src="photos/PhotoVersailles.jpg" onclick="photoWhere(this)" 
name="Versailles" style="width:50%">

Syntax is wrong, change your alert to:

var nameStr = "This photo was taken in "+name+".";
alert(nameStr);
