Hi,

I've trying to use a tooltip to display a paragrpah of text:

onmouseover="Tip('#comments#')"

The text has html formatting and I get the below error:

Error: unterminated string literal

Line: 1, Column: 4
Source Code:
Tip('<h3>Aim</h3>

Can anyone help?

Many thanks

    Check the conversion functions section of the documentation. IIRC there are at least two used to properly escape strings to javascript acceptable format. The names may not be exact, but check for ToScript() and/or JSScriptFormat()
