Call Javascript function and pass value from C#

Question

in HTML:

<script type="text/javascript">
function removeIndustry(item)
    {
        confirm(item);
    }
</script>

in C#:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Label1.Text = "<a href='javascript:removeIndustry('IndustryNameHere')'><i class='icon-remove'></i></a>Click";
}

The code is not working if I put any strings like 'IndustryNameHere' in that function. Without any values, it is working fine. Anyone please help me fix this error. Thanks a lot.

It could be because of the use of ' single-quote for the parameter. Seems to me that these quotes are in conflict with each other. Can you share your resulting HTML of what you have currently? i.e. with this IndustryNameHere string in it. — Tahir Ahmed

Try using " instead of single-quote for the parameters to be wrapped around with i.e. it should look like this: "<a href='javascript:removeIndustry("IndustryNameHere")'><i class='icon-remove'></i></a>Click";. — Tahir Ahmed

Try to escape quotes with \:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Label1.Text = "<a href=\"javascript:removeIndustry('IndustryNameHere')\"><i class='icon-remove'></i></a>Click";
}
