Can anyone help me identify the syntax error in this code? I get an error on each line starting with <area shape according to IE error reporting.

<img src="images\home_display.JPG" usemap="#home_display" border=0>
<map name="home_display">
<area shape=CIRCLE coords="70,115,57" href="http://domain.com/index.php?cPath=105" alt="" Title="Protein Skimmers" OnMouseOut="window.status=""; return true" OnMouseOver="window.status="Protein Skimmers"; return true">

JavaScript errors you mean? You can't nest quotes of the same kind.



As you have it above, the stement is "window.status=" + some junk. Use single quotes for one of the quote pairs.

I am using a ' quote for my php. is there a way to ' outside " inside and then something else inside that?

Hope that makes sense coming from a nubie coder.

/' did the trick. thanks for the help. you got me going in the right direction.

AFAIK, the escape character is a backslash \, nor a forward slash /.
