How to add a button inside message body in Javascript?

I have tried constructing message body like below-
i am getting object object exception and it isn't working for me if i keep inside message body-
"Dear " +
$scope.emailContactinfo.name +
", \n\nPlease find attached Invoice bearing number " +
$scope.invoiceInformation.documentNo +"Paynow\n\n" +$scope.generatedUrl +
" dated " +
moment($scope.invoiceInformation.invoiceDate).format("MM-DD-YYYY") +
". \n\nThanks and Regards,\n" +
$scope.invoiceInformation.organization$_identifier +
"." + button ;`

I suggest using this format, so the code is more readable -
const button = '<button>Button</button>';
`Dear ${$scope.emailContactinfo.name}, \n\nPlease find attached Invoice bearing number ${$scope.invoiceInformation.documentNo} Paynow\n\n ${$scope.generatedUrl} dated ${ moment($scope.invoiceInformation.invoiceDate).format("MM-DD-YYYY")}. \n\nThanks and Regards,\n ${$scope.invoiceInformation.organization$_identifier}. ${button}`

You could use html in a javascript variable like this e.g.:
var button = '<button>Button</button>';
var htmlBody = '<div>' + $scope.emailContactInfo + '</div>;
htmlBody += '<div>' + button + '</div>';

How to concatenate and pass parameters values in html using jQuery

I'm using jQuery to get values from ajax rest call, I'm trying to concatenate these values into an 'a' tag in order to create a pagination section for my results (picture attached).
I'm sending the HTML (divHTMLPages) but the result is not well-formed and not working, I've tried with double quotes and single but still not well-formed. So, I wonder if this is a good approach to accomplish what I need to create the pagination. The 'a' tag is going to trigger the onclick event with four parameters (query for rest call, department, row limit and the start row for display)
if (_startRow == 0) {
console.log("First page");
var currentPage = 1;
// Set Next Page
var nextPage = 2;
var startRowNextPage = _startRow + _rowLimit + 1;
var query = $('#queryU').val();
// page Link
divHTMLPages = "<strong>1</strong> ";
divHTMLPages += "<a href='#' onclick='getRESTResults(" + query + "', '" + _reg + "', " + _rowLimit + ", " + _startRow + ")>" + nextPage + "</a> ";
console.log("Next page: " + nextPage);
}
Thanks in advance for any help on this.
Pagination

Rather than trying to type out how the function should be called in an HTML string, it would be much more elegant to attach an event listener to the element in question. For example, assuming the parent element you're inserting elements into is called parent, you could do something like this:
const a = document.createElement('a');
a.href = '#';
a.textContent = nextPage;
a.onclick = () => getRESTResults(query, _reg, _rowLimit, _startRow);
parent.appendChild(a);
Once an event listener is attached, like with the onclick above, make sure not to change the innerHTML of the container (like with innerHTML += <something>), because that will corrupt any existing listeners inside the container - instead, append elements explicitly with methods like createElement and appendChild, as shown above, or use insertAdjacentHTML (which does not re-parse the whole container's contents).

$(function()
{
var query=10;
var _reg="12";
var _rowLimit="test";
var _startRow="aa";
var nextPage="testhref";
//before divHTMLPages+=,must be define divHTMLPages value
var divHTMLPages = "<a href='#' onclick=getRESTResults('"+query + "','" + _reg + "','" + _rowLimit + "','" + _startRow + "')>" + nextPage + "</a>";
///or use es6 `` Template literals
var divHTMLPages1 = `` + nextPage + ``;
$("#test").append("<div>"+divHTMLPages+"</div>");
$("#test").append("<div>"+divHTMLPages1+"</div>");
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="test"></div>

Cannot Parse String via JavaScript function

I'm dynamically generate tables row (buttons) using JS- Ajax.when i parse a numeric value removeProduct function return the alert. but i cant get alert if i parse a String. can anyone help me to solve this problem
problem is in this line :
onclick='removeProduct( " + prcode + " )'
how to parse a String via function? (as a JavaScript String)
var single = alldata[i].split("##");
var rows = "";
var prcode = single[1];
rows += "<td><a class='btn' onclick='removeProduct( " + prcode + " )' href='#'><i class='fa fa-trash-o'></i></a></td></tr>";
$(rows).appendTo("#tblproductslist tbody");
Function :
function removeProduct(str) {
alert(str);
}
Thanks in advance!

Because you are trying to pass a string literal, so try to enclose the value in ""
onclick='removeProduct(\"" + prcode + "\")'
Since you are working with jquery, I would recommend you use event delegation to handle event and the data-api to store the data.

You need this:
rows += "<td><a class='btn' onclick='removeProduct( \"" + prcode + "\" )' href='#'><i class='fa fa-trash-o'></i></a></td></tr>";
If "prcode" is a string you must to quote it or it will be treated as (undefined) variable and will trigger an error.
Good luck!

edit (append?) a string stored in a jquery variable

I am bringing a big html string inside an ajax call that I want to modify before I use it on the page. I am wondering if it is possible to edit the string if i store it in a variable then use the newly edited string. In the success of the ajax call this is what I do :
$.each(data.arrangement, function() {
var strHere = "";
strHere = this.htmlContent;
//add new content into strHere here
var content = "<li id=" + this.id + ">" + strHere + "</li>";
htmlContent is the key for the chunk of html code I am storing in the string. It has no problem storing the string (I checked with an alert), but the issue is I need to target a div within the stored string called .widgteFooter, and then add some extra html into that (2 small divs). Is this possible with jquery?
Thanks

Convert the string into DOM elements:
domHere = $("<div>" + strHere + "</div>");
Then you can update this DOM with:
$(".widgetFooter", domHere).append("<div>...</div><div>...</div>");
Then do:
var content = "<li id=" + this.id + ">" + domHere.html() + "</li>";

An alternative way to #Barmar's would be:
var domHere = $('<div/>').html( strHere ).find('.widgetFooter')
.append('<div>....</div>');
Then finish with:
var content = '<li id="' + this.id + '">' + domHere.html() + '</li>';

You can manipulate the string, but in this case it's easier to create elements from it and then manipulate the elements:
var elements = $(this.htmlContent);
elements.find('.widgteFooter').append('<div>small</div><div>divs</div>');
Then put the elements in a list element instead of concatenating strings:
var item = $('<li>').attr('id', this.id).append(elements);
Now you can append the list element wherever you did previously append the string. (There is no point in turning into a string only to turn it into elements again.) Example:
$('#MyList').append(item);

Javascript Parameter Passing Not Working

The code dynamically creates a listview which works but i want to make it so when a listview item is clicked it sends the a url paramater to another method. When i set a paramater it doesnt alert the paramater, but when i give no parameter it works.
var output =
"<li onclick='openURL()'><h3> Module Code: " +
results.rows.item(i).module
+ "</h3>Room: "
+ results.rows.item(i).room +
"</li>";
The above works - No parameter in openURL();
var output =
"<li onclick='openURL('" + results.rows.item(i).url + "')'><h3> Module Code: " +
results.rows.item(i).module
+ "</h3>Room: "
+ results.rows.item(i).room +
"</li>";
The above doesnt work - I have done alert(results.rows.item(i).url) and it has a value.
function openURL(url) {
alert("opening url " + url);
}
Could someone explain what i'm doing wrong, i've been trying to solve the problem for hours.
Cheers!

You are using single quotes to open the HTML attribute, you can't use it as JavaScript String because you'll be closing the HTML attribute, use double quotes:
var output =
"<li onclick='openURL(\"" + results.rows.item(i).url + "\")'><h3> Module Code: " +
results.rows.item(i).module
+ "</h3>Room: "
+ results.rows.item(i).room +
"</li>";
