Hi there.. can someone explain me the difference between single and double quotes? this is the only reason why my code is not working, i realized that i CANT use single quotes all the way but im not sure how to fix it , any help is really appreciated ….

here is one of my lines

images = new Array(4);

images[0] = “<a href=’vd_lj.htm’ target=’I3′><img id=’tab55’src= ‘truehope_bipolar_disorder_hope_s1p.gif’ alt=’truehope bipolar disorder hope videos’ width=’150′ height=’113′ border=’0′ [B]onmouseover[/B]=’tab55.src=’truehope_bipolar_disorder_hope_rs1.gif’ ‘ [B]onmouseout[/B]=’tab55.src=’truehope_bipolar_disorder_hope_s1p.gif’ ‘ /></a>”;

my main problem is that the mouseover and mouseout are not working.. thanks in advance

@FourCourtJesterSep 29.2008 — You're encapsulating single quotes inside single quotes, which is screwing around with the string when it tries to render. You need to escape your quotes to make it work.

images[0] = "<a href='vd_lj.htm' target='I3'><img id='tab55' src='truehope_bipolar_disorder_hope_s1p.gif' alt='truehope bipolar disorder hope videos' width='150' height='113' border='0' onmouseover='tab55.src='truehope_bipolar_disorder_hope_rs1.gif'' onmouseout='tab55.src='truehope_bipolar_disorder_hope_s1p.gif'' /></a>";

or

images[0]="<a href="vd_lj.htm" target="I3"><img id="tab55" src="truehope_bipolar_disocrder_hope_s1p.gif" alt="truehope bipolar disorder hope videos" width="150" height="113" border="0" onmouseover="tab55.src='truehope_bipolar_disorder_hope_rs1.gif' onmouseout="tab55.src='truehope_bipolar_disorder_hope_s1p.gif' /></a>";

@TheBearMaySep 29.2008 — Could also try:

images = new Array(4);

images[0] = "&lt;a href='vd_lj.htm' target='I3'&gt;&lt;img id='tab55'src= 'truehope_bipolar_disorder_hope_s1p.gif' alt='truehope bipolar disorder hope videos' width='150' height='113' border='0' onmouseover='tab55.src=&amp;quot;truehope_bipolar_disorder_hope_rs1.gif&amp;quot; ' onmouseout='tab55.src=&amp;quot;truehope_bipolar_disorder_hope_s1p.gif&amp;quot; ' /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;";
