I tried to use parenscript today to generate some some javascript
embedded in html. I am using CL-WHO library to generate html and try to
embed javascript using parenscript. The code is below. When this runs
it generates javascript that firefox does not like. Can someone look at
the js-inline call and let me know if I am doing something wrong.

(defun trial-page()
  (with-html-output-to-string(*standard-output* nil :prologue t)
    (:html (:head (:title "This a trial"))
           (:body (:h1 "Combine Parenscript with cl-who")
                  (:p "Please click the link below."
                      ((:a :href "#" :onclick (js-inline(alert "Hello
World")))
                       "Click Here"))))))

The call is fine but cl-who and parenscript conflict with the use
of the #\' character. Fortunately cl-who allows you to change
what character is used to quote attributes so get the latest
version of cl-who (or at least 0.6.0) and rebind
cl-who:*attribute-quote-char* to #\".

Cheers,
 Sean.

That's all well and good until your JavaScript contains a #\"
character.  I think what you really want is #'escape-string
(http://weitz.de/cl-who/#escape-string).
