The apostrophes can also be dealt with with a backslash, e.g.:

"can't" becomes

"can\'t"

I use the technique you describe on my site's menus. Yeah, I understand
the issues surrounding javascript being turned off on the client side.
But, using server-side solutions is not an option. For instance, I get
175 Mb of hosting space included in my basic ISP's plan (Comcast). They
don't provide any server-side solutions (PHP etc.) and it really doesn't
make any sense for me to toss that freebie away and pay for hosting when
my site(s) are simply a hobby and not a business. YMMV.
