If I understand you right, you are talking about a question where you need to escape ' quote with a backslash.

var string = 'That's your example';

Problem with this code is that as soon as your browser gets to the Second quote ('), it thinks that should be the end of the string and expects the ; But it sees a set of strange characters and stops working To prevent that you should escape it with a backslash \ Then the browser can understand that it's not the end of the line, just another symbol So the right answer would be

var string = 'That\'s your example';
