            Bug ID: 222528
           Summary: <button
                    onclick='window.confirm("A&B"C'D")'>E</b
                    utton> cannot be parsed
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Other
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: JavaScriptCore
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: dpa-webkit at aegee.org

The file https://mail.aegee.org/t-quoting.html contains:

<html><head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
</head><body>
    <button onclick='window.confirm("A&B"C'D")'>E</button>
    <button onclick="window.confirm('F&G"H'I')">J</button>
</body></html>

I do not know how this will be rendered here, but both actions contain quoted window.confirm which contains ampersand followed by apos and quot .

For both buttons the system says SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier 'C'. Expected ')' to end an argument list. 

I use WebKitGtk 2.30.5.

The same happens in Firefox, reported at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1695491 and in Chromium reported at https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1183132 .
