Hi guys.

unterminated string problem.

In view page
[removed]
error = "<?php echo strip_tags(validation_errors()));?>";
alert(error);
[removed]

if it is single error it will alert the message,
but if its more than one error i had got error like unterminated string.

output
error = "passwrord filed is required.
verfication code is required.
first name is required. "

I removed \r\t\n character also but still no luck

Thanks in advance

You can't be removing those non-printable characters, otherwise there would be no line breaks. Smile

You need to remove the newline characters before you assign it in JavaScript

$error = "passwrord filed is required......"; (on one line)

Code:
error = "&lt;?php echo preg_replace("/(\n)+/m", ' ', strip_tags(validation_errors())));?&gt;";

Quick Example

Code:
&lt;?php

$error =  "passwrord filed is required.

              verfication code is required.

              first name is required.";

        $error = preg_replace("/(\n)+/m", ' ', $error);

?&gt;

[script language="javascript"]          

    document .write('&lt;?= $error?&gt;');

[/script]

Updated 'regular expression' (remove excess white space & list each error on a newline)

Code:
&lt;?php

$error =  "passwrord filed is required.

           verfication code is required.

           first name is required.";

        $error = preg_replace('/(\n)+\s+/m', '\n', $error);
