    VBScript passing string params from HTML

    I have a client side vbscript function which accepts 2 parameters.
    I call this function from HTML from an Href. Everything works fine until i send a parameter where one of the strings has a space in it. I get an error on the page. The string needs to be quoted, when i put single quotes it wont work and when i put double quotes the HTML thinks its ending the string.
    ANY IDEAS???

    THat is exactly what the problem was. I figured it out. What I had to do was put the outer quotes as single quotes and the function call double quotes...
    <a href='somefunction("params")'></a>
    that worked.
    I guess html allows single and vbscript only allows double quotes.
    Thanks for your help
