OnClick event for calling javascript function syntax

Question

I'm going to ask an easy one here for those who are very familiar with this kind of syntax. Unfortunately I'm not, and I'm having a hard time with using single quotes and double quotes for raising a javascript method in an OnClick event. Here is my code:

<script type="text/javascript">
    function OpenWindow(workItemId) { ... }
</script>

EDIT: copy-paste mistake, forgot the server block quotes <%# %>

<asp:Image ID="imgDescription" ImageUrl="../Images/Tooltip_t.gif" runat="server" OnClick='OpenWindow('<%# Eval("WorkItemId") %>' );' />

This should work:

onclick='<%# "OpenWindow(" + Eval("WorkItemId") + ");" %>'

May be you should use screening slashes with your quotes like: \"
