Description Chris Jaun

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #241647 +++

Build ID: I20080617-2000

JSDT doesn’t understand multi-line strings. In the following example, you will get an error ‘String literal is not properly closed by a double-quote’, even though it should just work.

Also, the error description seems incorrect as in JS strings can use both single and double-quotes.

Example:

var xslt = new DOMParser().parseFromString('\
    <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"\
        xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"\
        xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">\
        <xsl:output method="html" indent="no"/>\
        <xsl:template match="/">\
            <div>\
                <xsl:apply-templates select="*" />\
            </div>\
        </xsl:template>\
    </xsl:stylesheet>\
');
