Hopefully this improves the conversation.
I’ve yet to get to that problem but my guess is double quotes in other double quotes should be single quotes.

Example:

“I am a ‘string inside’ this code”.

Or: single quotes on the outside, and double on the inside; they can replace one another.

Might be a wrong, it has been a while.

Here is my code

var myStr = “I am a"double quoted"string inside"double quotes”.";
i have tried to not use the backslash and just use double quotes but it still would not run

Works in a few circumstances, but not a general solution. What if your string contains both single and double quotes? What if your organization’s coding style guide and editorial style guide both require the same type of quotation marks?

Instead, you need to escape the quotes in the string. Escaping is simple: just put a backslash before the character.

"\"" // literal double quote
'\'' // literal single quote
'\\' // literal backslash
var vultan1 = "\"Gordon's alive!\" - Prince Vultan";
var vultan2 = '"Gordon\'s alive!" - Prince Vultan';
vultan1 === vultan2; // true
