Error Message: Missing ; Before Statement

I am getting back the error: Missing ; before statement


chkBox.innerHTML = "<input type=checkbox onclick=is_checked() id="cbox + index" name="cbox + index">"+field1+"";

And it is pointing to the cbox that is bolded.

Whatever help given will be appreciated.

The piece of code is within a function and the index variable is calculated and the field1 variable is being passed in.

The " before cbox signifies the end of the string.

As pointed out above your string is incorrectly constructed.

To Js your string ends when it finds a second set of double quotes, so it expects a semi colon to end the instruction before anything else.

CODE

chkBox.innerHTML = "<input type=checkbox onclick=is_checked() id='cbox + index' name='cbox + index'>"+field1+"";
