how do i paste and assign string to javascript variable, if string is weird?

Question

This string is url part that comes after http://www.domain.com/?----this-part---- .

but my string is huge and it has quotes every now and then, single and double. etc.

Edit: originally i thought the quotes were messing it up but now it seems i was wrong. So i'm pasting whole string.

If the string is delimited by " You can replace " with \\"

If the string is delimited by ' you can replace ' with \\'

As an example:

var str = 'It\'s me';  // Is a string with the text It's me

If you take the string from the code is already a string so you don't need any modification.

If you take the string from a copy from the browser url you can past it in an editor (notepad, ultraedit, vi, vim, leafpad...) and use the function "Replace"
