I'm not sure if this mail got mangled by the bug reporting system or a
mail client. What is the last line ? The following doesn't look very
legal to me:

alert("<%=memvar1"%>);

Could you send us a small self contained HTML page that shows the
problem ? This one just worked fine for me:

<html>
  <body>
<script>
memvar1 = "I 've gone out ";
alert(memvar1);
</script>
  </body>
</html>
