Use a Variable in a javascript Alert box
I am trying to create an alert box that returns the value of a variable. I tried using this:
var text Danger = "<a style=\" text-decoration: none; background: #FF0000; border-radius: 5px; color: #...

Just for kicks, give this one a shot: javascript:alert(\"" & $message & "\")
It's not always the case, but there are times when using the \" in place of a single ' will make an otherwise perfect code actually function with Javascript. They're both effectively accomplishing the same task, but the single ' can be inconsistent from time to time.

- Alrighty, then take a close look at the $message variable contents. It's entirely possible that the 'message' being pulled into the code contains characters that are breaking the code.

------------------------------- The only special character used in the message text is \n. And, yes, the last character in the message is going to be \n. I changed the message to equal to Left($message, Length($message) - 2), still the same result.

------------------------------- If you replace the $message variable with a field reference, such as [Record ID#], do you get the same error?
