Here CF is outputting the values of fname and lname inside your
string, so as long as you do not have double quotes ( " ), it will
work.

> but fname='Charles's

what is the "s" after " ' "?

> lanme ='Charles's'

I suspect you mean
lname ="Charles's"

> so javascript is not interpret with apostrophe . how can i resolve it thanks

Javascript WILL run OK, as soon as you fix other problems.
