Problem using single/double quotes as TextBox Value

    I would like to display a value for eg.

    <input type="text"  name="a" value="This is 'a' "ultimate" test"/>
    Code (markup):
    I would like the text box to have value {This is 'a' "ultimate" test} but instead since the double quotes are used as closing, the text box would have {This is 'a' }

    Please help me in having this worked out. I know its something silly that I am missing out..:(

    Thanks
    Ketan

    Thank you,
