How to put a quotation mark inside a string? (resolved)

I am rolling my own keyboard for a chat window and i've got all the characters worked out, but i'm stuck on the use of Shift+' to make a ".. because of course a """ doesn't fly with construct.. and i'm sure it's something html5-ish

I did some googling and i read something like using a \ in front of the quote but that's not working for me.

Hi, you can store the quotations "" in a local variable, this way the editor will allow it.

For that, you can make a constant local variable named q and store the quotation mark ". This way you have an expression for a quotation mark.

ok trying it now! yea that makes a lot of sense. :)

man that worked like a champ! thanks so much. never thought to use a variable to store something like that. great thinking.

You're welcome!

because, well yea i didn't know about that one, but this approach worked so i did it. i wondered if there was something more concise.

I'm using sprite font if that makes any difference. i've found sprite font to be missing some key things (things i'm trying to work out in another question) because the text field is a bit rigid in how it looks.

Thanks!
