How to embed quote in dynamic IFrame Input element?

I want to be able to embed a single quote into an INPUT element
within a dynamically generated IFRAME. The example below
shows how the IFRAME is generated.

Challenge: I'd like the alert box to show: Mom said, "Don't"
instead of the current: Mom said, "Do not".

The point of the exercise is that I will be passing arbitrary
strings to the IFRAME and I want to ensure that the final
string is the same as the original. So I'm interested in dealing
with all the troublemaker characters.

Thanks,
Csaba Gabor from New York

PS. The point of the alert is to validate that everything
is copasetic with the IFRAME.

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD><TI TLE>IFrame test page</TITLE>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type
content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<SCRIPT type="text/javascript">
function makeIframe() {
var iframe = document.create Element("IFRAME ");
iframe.src = "javascript:'<H TML><HEAD>";
iframe.src += "<TITLE>Dyn amic IFrame</TITLE>";
iframe.src += '</HEAD><BODY onLoad="alert(' ;
iframe.src += 'document.getEl ementById(';
iframe.src += '&quot;myInput& quot;).value)"> ';
iframe.src += '<FORM method=get action=dummy.ph p>';
iframe.src += "<input type=text id=" + "myInput ";
iframe.src += 'value="Mom said, &quot;Do not&quot;">';
iframe.src += "</FORM></BODY></HTML>'"
document.body.a ppendChild(ifra me);
}
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD><BODY style="margin:5 %" onLoad="makeIfr ame()">
Main Body
</BODY>
</HTML>

A solution to the specific problem is to replace the
Do not (8 lines before the </HTML>)
with
Don\x5Cx27t

PS. I've been testing on IE 5.5

Hi all. I don't have a very deep understanding of CSS and this question might sound stupid for you. Sorry for that. Can the overflow CSS property be applied to the embed tag? I have an embed tag whose source is big SVG file, whose dimensions are unknown. If it is bigger than the screen, the rest of the SVG is clipped and not shown. I would like to force the embed tag to scroll in that case.
