How do you say in JavaScript, treat the following string as a literal string?
In C# you can escape out the characters one at a time the same way as you do in
JavaScript:
string myString = "C:\\Program Files\\JavaScript\\is\\goofy";
or you can tell it that the entire string is literal with an @:
string myString = @"C:\Program Files\JavaScript\is\goofy";
Thanks,
Eric
