attribute bad formed in JSON data

[akkadII]

Hi, I have a JSON data set parsed and at one point in the script I have this line:

<a class='dev' href="+page+" title='+title+' target=_blank>"+title+"</a>

The problem is that in any JSON data set I use the attribute "title" is bad formed and the result is the only first word from the data set which contains the title data. Why is so ?

make sure that title is a string, and that it does not contain an apostrophe, line break, or other invalid JSON string char.

if you need to, you can escape it with the function below:

function jx (s) {
 if(!s.match){s=String(s);}
 var m = {'\b':"\\b", '	':"\\t", '\n':"\\n", '\f':"\\f", '\r':"\\r", '"':"\\\"", '\\':"\\\\"};
	if (/["\\\x00-\x1f]/.test(s)) {
	  return "\"" + s.replace(/([\x00-\x1f\\"])/g, function (a, b) {var c = m[b];if (c) {return c;}c = b.charCodeAt();return "\\u00" + Math.floor(c / 16).toString(16) + (c % 16).toString(16);}) + "\"";
	}
	return s;
}

the code is this:

<script type="text/javascript">
  var ix=0
  function cback(obj)
  {
  var count=(obj.count);
  while (ix<count)
  {
  var title=(obj.value.items[ix].title);
  var pic=(obj.value.items[ix]["media:thumbnail"][0].url);
  var author = (obj.value.items[ix]["media:credit"][0].content);
  var page = (obj.value.items[ix].link);
  var pub = (obj.value.items[ix].pubDate);
  var dynDiv = document.createElement("div");
  dynDiv.id = "p"+ix+"";
  dynDiv.setAttribute('class',"SlidingPanelsContent")
  dynDiv.innerHTML = ("<div style='border: 1px solid #000000;width:300px;height:272px;text-align:center;padding:3px;'><img class='show' src="+pic+" alt="+title+"/><br><a class='dev' href="+page+" title="+title+" target=_blank>"+title+"</a><br><p class='dev'>by:  "+author+" on "+pub+"</p></div>")
  document.getElementById('dv').appendChild(dynDiv);

  ix=ix+1 ;
   }
   }
  </script>

In this case for example the attribute 'alt' of the image is "Elegant" instead of "Elegant Visions" (in bold red and scroll right to find it).

	}
	return s;
}

Actually there is a space between words and that might explain it.

I was trying to add attributes to the JSON parsed data such as "alt", "title" and other characteristics, but i gave up since this page isn't indexed by search engines or at least useful for the user. But I've noticed some strange results. For example when retrieving a value as "long words" the result looks like this:

title="long" words=""
