Line continuation

I'm trying to clean up some Sahi (.sah) script files to make them more readable and many lines are extremely long (mostly SQL statements) that I would like to break up into multiple lines so that they don't extend past the right edge of the screen.

Does Sahi allow lines in a script to be broken up into multiple lines? If so, what is the line continuation character? Using nothing produces an error. Using + produces an error. Using \ produces an error. Everything I have tried produces an error.

Thanks!

Dan

    Use javascript syntax for string concatenation.
    var $id = 100;
var $sql = "select * from " + 
            "people where " + 
            "personId = " + $id;
_alert($sql);

    Narayan,

    Thanks! I tried that first, but I got errors. I'll give it a try again.

    It's working now. Not sure why it didn't before. Strange.
