JavaScript runtime error

I have a function in my JSP and am calling it when the user clicks on an image.

I get a runtime error
"Unterminated string constant"
I tried all possibilities like using escape characters, removing double quotes ..etc.
do anyone have an answer..?

Hi,
in your example single quote, right before "javascript:" closed inside word Provider'2
And if you use onclick, you don't need "javascript:".
<img src="../images/edit_button.gif" border="0"
on_click='OnClickEdit("SunLife","Provider\'2","909090909");'>....

Hi,
What if the the single quote's position in the string varies dynamically..?

i agree with what Yuriy said. also, i thought single quotes were used inside double quotes. i dont see any double quotes enclosing the single quotes. otherwise Yuriy's code looks right to me(it's been a while but i seem to recall using \ to escape special chars). semicolon at end is not needed either although it is allowed.

<img src="../images/edit_button.gif" border="0"
on_click="OnClickEdit('SunLife','Provider\'2','909090909')">....

if single quote position varies dynamically, i think you are out of luck. it has a meaning to html and must be escaped to not be interpreted.

look at this thread http://www.coderanch.com/t/113011/HTML-JavaScript/Check-special-characters
It looks simular to your question.
