将混合字符串和int参数传递给javascript

Question

I've had a look around and can't seem to find a working solution, so here's the requirements.

I'm building a system that takes data from a master page and loads it into a modal style window for quick data processing. I have a javascript function passing 4 status parameters, and whilst 3 of them will always be integers, one of them can be integer or string.

The function works if all 4 parameters are integer, but fails when a string is passed.

function passJob(jobid,equipid,status,location) {

var a = document.getElementById('jobnumber');
var b = document.getElementById('equipid');
var c = document.getElementById('status');
var d = document.getElementById('location');
  a.value = jobid;
  b.value = equipid;  
  c.value = status;  
  d.value = location;  
}

PHP

<a href='#' onclick='passJob($sr,$eid,$ss,$sl);'>Modify Job</a>

$sr, $ss and $sl will always be numeric, $eid will either be integer, or a string starting with M and then having a number after it.

I've tried adding quotes to the variables, around the variables, inside the function etc and no luck :(

You need to pass as string if you do not know what they are - also make sure you do not nest the same type of quote:

onclick='passJob($sr,"$eid",$ss,$sl);'
