OAS: Getting pl/sql variables into Javascript variables..

I've a slight problem...

I need to store the values of pl/sql variables into javascript variables..

the following code works fine most of the time

snippet of code....

<script language=JavaScript>

var test1 = "'|| l_text ||'";

</script>

However, when the pl/sql variable contains a reserved character, such as an apostrophe....there is a failure in javascript...

I was wondering, does anyone have any pl/sql that will 'escape' the pl/sql variable in the same way that the javascript escape() funtion works ????

Cheers
