Hi,
I had this code in a template file:
alert('{% trans "a string" %}')
It gave error when translated bacause the translated string had a '
inside. So, I replaced " with ' in the template line and all worked
fine.
To avoid any problem with 'escape chars', is there a way to escape
translated strings, like the 'escapejs' filter tag does?
Something like "{% trans "a string" | escapejs %}"
Thank you

Yes, instead of using {% trans "foo" %}, you can use this alternative
form, for use inside an output tag:
{{ _("foo")|escapejs }}
Cheers
Tom
