Both are perfectly valid. From the HTML spec:
| By default, SGML requires that all attribute values be delimited using
| either double quotation marks (ASCII decimal 34) or single quotation
| marks (ASCII decimal 39). [...]
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/intro/sgmltut.html#h-3.2.2
The same applies to XML and its derivates (it's in the spec as well).
So you can use both, whatever fits best. I use one or the other as
necessary, simply in order to avoid the escaping.
