    <p>How do I delimit a Javascript databound string parameter in an anchor <code>OnClick</code> event?</p> <ul> <li>I have an anchor tag in an ASP.NET Repeater control. </li> <li>The <code>OnClick</code> event of the anchor contains a call to a Javascript function. </li> <li>The Javascript function takes a string for its input parameter. </li> <li>The string parameter is populated with a databound value from the Repeater.</li> </ul> <p>I need the "double quotes" for the <code>Container.DataItem</code>.<br> I need the 'single quotes' for the <code>OnClick</code>.</p> <p>And I still need <em>one more delimiter</em> (triple quotes?) for the input string parameter of the Javascript function call.</p> <p>Since I can't use 'single quotes' again, how do I ensure the Javascript function knows the input parameter is a string and not an integer?</p> <p>Without the extra quotes around the input string parameter, the Javascript function thinks I'm passing in an integer.</p> <p>The anchor:</p> <pre><code>&lt;a id="aShowHide" onclick='ToggleDisplay(&lt;%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "JobCode") %&gt;);' &gt;Show/Hide&lt;/a&gt; </code></pre> <p>and here is the Javascript:</p> <pre><code>&lt;script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"&gt; /* Shows/Hides the Jobs Div */ function ToggleDisplay(jobCode) { /* Each div has its ID set dynamically ('d' plus the JobCode) */ var elem = document.getElementById('d' + jobCode); if (elem) { if (elem.style.display != 'block') { elem.style.display = 'block'; elem.style.visibility = 'visible'; } else { elem.style.display = 'none'; elem.style.visibility = 'hidden'; } } } &lt;/script&gt; </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
