Hi Ian

nice and easy one this just use singel quotes instead

alert('"hello"');

Hope this helps

Thanks for the reply, problem is i really need the quote marks displayed to be double " quote marks.

You can use a backslash with a single quote or double quote to put them inside a literal in JavaScript. For example:

strExample = 'Programmers write \'Hello World\' programs often.';

or

alert("Programmers write \"Hello World\" often.");

yeah, that will work. use the sinqle quotes as your string delimiter and then you can put double quotes in side

alert(' jkjkj"jkjkj ');

Sorry, I didn't explain myself properly

or paul's way works as well, he posted without me realising
