String formating

Hi all,
I'm facing some problems with path containing space, the invoke-expression
doens't handle this very well. How to you process such pathes ?

Another string problem come from I need to declare some strings with double
quotes inside, how do I build these strings ?

Many thanks in advance for the help.

Use single quotes... if you can provide an example that would help

You can escape the " using `
example
PS > $msg = "I want to say `"hello`""
PS > $msg
I want to say "hello"

type into PS

"<a href=""http://scriptolog.blogspot.com"" target=""_blank"">Script
Fanatics blog</a>"

and it will render as:

<a href="http://scriptolog.blogspot.com" target="_blank">Script Fanatics
blog</a>

basically, add extra quote for each desired one and wrap the whole string
with quotes

Also you can wrap quotes into '' block:

'<a href="http://scriptolog.blogspot.com" target="_blank">Script Fanatics
blog</a>'
