javascript - PHP - Echoing multiple nested quotes of HTML

Question

I'm attempting to echo the following line of HTML through PHP

echo "<a class='fa fa-ban fa-2x cancelClass' onClick='cancelClass('$id', '$formattedDate', '$time')'></a><p class='text-center'>".$formattedDate." @ $time</p>";

I don't get an error. But the quotes for onClick='cancelClass... don't get parsed properly, which leads to the javascript function not executing.

How it gets color coded in Google Chrome Source View

How it should get color coded (example of another function)

Answer 1

Change it to the following

echo "<a class="fa fa-ban fa-2x cancelClass" onClick="cancelClass('$id', '$formattedDate', '$time')"></a><p class="text-center">".$formattedDate." @ $time</p>";

escaping the attribute double quotes you can have a normalized html
