Thank You for your prompt reply. Well, I have already tried these two options but 
somehow they dont work. When I click on the hyperlink created by this line, the link 
just says 
javascript:window.open(
Why would that happen? It is ok with the first quote, but it ignores everything after 
the second one.
thanks,
Prachi.

OR

echo ' . " ?,?width='430","height=450"' )?>';

I cannot separate the javascript thing into a different javascript function
and call the function because the TITLE and BODY of this HTML page start in
another php program and declaring a javascript function there does not help,
as the call here does not recognize that function.

ignore. Putting slashes manually or using addslashes does not help. Could
anyone please explain the working of single (') and double (") quotes in PHP
or suggest a solution to my problem?
