This jQuery statement works in recent versions of Firefox and Chrome but throws an error in IE 8.

left_bar_string = "<tr><td><a href='#' onclick= "return newPopUpWindow('somelink','window', '1000','800','100','0','yes')">Directions</a></td></tr>";

$("#side_bar").append(left_bar_string);

I think problem is with double quotes. Any comments/solutions?
