Hi Ernest,
I stand corrected. (I tend to standardise on double quotes where
possible, and rarely use singles)
Thanks for correcting me on this.
Thanks

You need to escape a quote if it's in a string that is quoted with the
same
quote:
"Double quoted string needs to \"escape\" double quotes but not
'single quotes'"
'Single quoted string needs not to "escape" double quotes but
\'single quotes\'"
