A string having "<br/">" displays an unterminated string literal js error string

Question

I am extracting some data from Db and displaying it in a text box using jquery as follows. $('#textareatest').val('<% =teststring %>'). It is possible that the string teststring may contain line breaks XHTML ( <br/>). whenever the line contains <br/>, I get an error 'unterminated string literal'. I saw several posts viewing '\ n' as line breaks and suggesting avoiding this. I tried to avoid the <br/>same way, but that didn't work.

Can someone help me with this?

UPDATE: . I have already escaped single quotes. here is an example string test string<br />

Thank.

Answer 3

, :

$('#textareatest').val(decodeURI('<% =System.Uri.EscapeUriString(teststring) %>'))

?

This will encode the entire string for use in URLs and allow javascript to decode it. It is not very efficient, but it is pretty safe (since the character set allowed in the URI is pretty small).

Answer 4

You must encode the html string, so it <br/>will become:
