Trying to Escape Complicated Javascript Link

[Capoeirista]

Hi There -

It's probably not complicated for someone who knows javascript and I'm sure it's something glaringly simple that I just can't see anymore. I'd be extremely grateful if someone could help me out. I could be completely off the wall with this too. Escaping quotes has consistently been a downfall of mine.

Am trying to create a bookmarklet - a link that you drag to your bookmarks bar and it sticks there.

I'd really appreciate any help I can get.

The naked code I need to escape is the following:

<a href="javascript:
u=document.location.href;
t=document.title.replace(/\|/g,'::');
s='<blockquote>'+window.getSelection()+'</blockquote>';
pre='<em>From <a target="_blank" href="'+escape(u)+'">'+escape(t) + escape('</a>:</em><br /> ');
void(window.open('http://EXAMPLE.net/node/add/page?edit[title]='+escape('Link: '+t)+'&edit[body]='+pre+escape(s)+escape('<a href="'+u+'" target="_blank">Link</a>'),'_blank','width=710,height=500,status=yes,resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes'));">blog this</a>

My attempt to escape this netted a blank page:

<?php

$blogthis1 = '<a href=\"javascript:';
$blogthis1 .= 'u=document.location.href;';
$blogthis1 .= "t=document.title.replace(/\|/g,\'::\');";
$blogthis1 .= "s='<blockquote>'+window.getSelection()+'</blockquote>';";
$blogthis1 .= "pre='<em>From <a target=\"_blank\" href="'+escape(u)+'">'+escape(t) + escape('</a>:</em><br /> ');";
$blogthis1 .= "void(window.open('http://myWebsite.net/node/add/page?edit[title]='+escape('Link:";
$blogthis1 .= "'+t)+'&edit[body]='+pre+escape(s)+escape('<a href=\"'+u+'\"";
$blogthis1 .= "target=\"_blank\">Link</a>'),'_blank','width=710,height=500,status=yes,resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes'));\">blog this</a>";

echo $blogthis1;

?>

Forgot to mention that the reason I'm trying to escape all this is that I'm trying to put it into the CMS Drupal in a block. Details details. . .

Thanks for looking. Thanks even more for helping,

If you use single quotes, you don't have to escape double ones and vice versa.
Or better yet, use heredoc, so you don't have to escape anything:

echo <<<END
<a href="javascript: u=document.location.href; t=document.title.replace(/\|/g,'::'); s='<blockquote>'+window.getSelection()+'</blockquote>'; pre='<em>From <a target="_blank" href="'+escape(u)+'">'+escape(t) + escape('</a>:</em><br /> '); void(window.open('http://EXAMPLE.net/node/add/page?edit[title]='+escape('Link: '+t)+'&edit[body]='+pre+escape(s)+escape('<a href="'+u+'" target="_blank">Link</a>'),'_blank','width=710,height=500,status=yes,resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes'));">blog this</a> 
END;
