Goodness!! How quickly you give up! Shouldn't you be listening to the
several people who want you to update your files instead of being
discouraged by a few well meant criticisms?

I believe you CAN use the " and \ characters in Javascript. You just
have to put another \ in front of them. And I suspect that strings WILL
accept line breaks. Why don't you go to the Omega's Javascript help
forum and consult with him on it?
