Stuffing html into an element attribute is ugly and generally not necessary. Why are you needing to do this in the first place?

Here's an extensive breakdown of all your options.

Both double and single quotes can be escaped with backslashes:

 $(".carousel").attr("data-dot", "<button role="button">");
 $(".carousel").attr("data-dot", '<button role='button'>');

Of course, you can also use single quotes inside of double quotes depending on the scenario (i.e., yours):

 $(".carousel").attr("data-dot", "<button role='button'>");

Finally, single quotes can also be placed inside double quotes:

 $(".carousel").attr("data-dot", '<button role="button">');

EDIT

A good way to play around with escaping strings is just plugging stuff into your browser console.

console.log("Here is a "quote."");
console.log('Here is a "quote."');
console.log("Here is 'another quote.'");
console.log('Here is yet 'another quote.'');

And is there any way how to execute php code? <?php include("inc/chart3.svg")?> .

@kores59 You can't directly do this with JavaScript -- PHP has to be processed on the server side. However, if you place that <?php include in your .php file, that would work. Quick example: foo.php - <script>var a = "<?php echo time(); ?>"</script> would set a variable a to time when your page was loaded. Takes a bit of finagling, but you can do most things.
