I have to call some Javascript functions from my Java code and some strings as parameter. The string may contain new line and double/single quote. So I want to escape the new line and double quote using java so that it can be passed smoothly to JS method? How to do the same?

Use this: st.replaceAll("\\s+","") - removes all whitespaces and non visible characters such as tab, \n and for removing single quotes use str.replace("'", "") and so on for similar things.

I do want to replace the those characters, I need them in javascript, so I want to just escape them. – dev_android May 06 '15 at 05:35

I tried Apache common lib. StringEscapeUtils.escapeJavaScript(String) using org.apache.commons.lang.StringEscapeUtils
