Help please.... My website doesn't like the following line of code:

document.write('TJ's Restaurant');

Seems to be due to the apostrophe in TJ's. How can I fix it and still keep
the apostrophe? Thanks for your help.

Precede the apostrophe with a backslash:

document.write('TJ\'s Restaurant');

You could also just flip between using single or double quotes:

i.e:
document.write("Ken's");
document.write('Ken"s');

This werks 2.
