I am creating a website which consists of one html page - all the sections are hidden until the appropriate links are clicked.

Each section requires that I use an apostrophy where all speech marks occur.

Is there a drop-down list where each option initiates a different javascript function, but uses only apostrophies?

Here is an example of the functions I'm using.

start();return false

Any help is severely appreciated ;)

<b>Welcome!</b> This website is basically a
hub for all my files, hobbies and interests. To
make it easier on myself, I restricted this website
to one html page - all the sections are hidden until
the desired links are clicked. If you are a web
designer yourself, feel free to rip the source code.
<p>In the past I never used to put as much effort
into the graphical aspect of my websites;
I am more of a html/css/javascript nut.
Saying that, all my efforts may've been for nothing.
Well I'm sort of happy with the design, so until I make something better...this'll have to do.
<p align='center'><a href='#'
onClick='menu();return false'><img src='menu.jpg'></a></td></tr></table></td>
<td width='90' align='left' class='next'><a href='#' onClick='menu();return false'>
<img src='next.jpg' alt='menu'></a></td></tr></table>
</td></tr></table>";
}
</script>

Help me understand this.
You want to have a drop down list of items.
aon a selection of item from the list you want to display a specific/related text on the page?

My webpage consists of this....

<script>
function start() {
document.getElementById("reveal").innerHTML = "....text, html and DROP-DOWN LIST here..."; }
function aboutme() {
document.getElementById("reveal").innerHTML = "....text, html and DROP-DOWN LIST here..."; }
function mypoems() {
document.getElementById("reveal").innerHTML = "....text, html and DROP-DOWN LIST here..."; }
function dirtyjokes() {
document.getElementById("reveal").innerHTML = "....text, html and DROP-DOWN LIST here..."; }
</script>

I would like the drop-down list to allow my users to toggle between start(), aboutme(), mypoems(), dirtyjokes() etc.... but because the drop-down list will exist inside the innerHTML, all speech marks must be changed to apostrophies.

Hope that clears a few things up!
