Javascript Error Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected Identifier

[Cognitronic]

I'm using the RadSocialShare control on a product details page in an eCommerce app and it was working fine for most products, but a few would not display the buttons.  In Chrome's javascript console I saw it was throwing the uncaught syntaxerror due to an apostrophe in the TitleToShare property's value.  As soon as I removed the apostrophe it started working....hope this helps someone else!

Hi guys,

We are aware of this issue and it has recently been addressed. The fix will be available in the next internal build (due in the beginning of the next week) and in all later official releases.


Best wishes,

I'd like to know when the new build is available also.  Any work-around for the time being?

Nevermind.  Double escaping seems to work for me.

Cognitronic, thank you for the tip....didn't see that coming...everything works on local dev machine and in staging, since nobody entered ' or ".

Your solution workedt. It also helps, if you remove any breaks, if user enters text in multiline textbox.

I would also add myself to the list for the fix.
