I'm trying scripting in appleScript,
but I could not script """ (quote) in appleScript.

(in HyperTalk, it is written as "quote")

such as...

  set theID to "tableDataProperty"
  set str to "<td id=>" & quote & theID &  quote & "</td>"

You need to escape the quotes within a string... by putting a backslash in front of it as in \"
So, your example would be

set theId to "tableDataProperty"
set str to "<td id=>\"" & theId & "\"</td>"

--Result:  <td id=>"tableDataProperty"</td>

Cheers,
Joe Weaks
