Add the backslash escape character when using special chars like double quotes within strings to be expanded.
man bash
Quote:
There are three quoting mechanisms: the escape character, single quotes, and double quotes.
A non-quoted backslash (\) is the escape character. . .

css::dom::util
CSS::DOM::Util(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation CSS::DOM::Util(3pm)
NAME
CSS::DOM::Util - Utility functions for dealing with CSS tokens
VERSION
Version 0.14
SYNOPSIS
use CSS::DOM::Util ':all';
# or:
use CSS::DOM::Util qw[
escape unescape
escape_ident unescape_url
escape_str unescape_str
];
DESCRIPTION
This module provides utility functions for dealing with CSS tokens.
FUNCTIONS
All functions below that take one argument have a "($)" prototype, so they have the same precedence as "closedir" and "delete".
escape $string, $chars_to_escape
This escapes any characters in $string that occur in $chars_to_escape, which is interpreted as a regular expression. The regexp must
consume just one character; otherwise you'll find chars missing from the output. ASCII vertical whitespace (except the vertical tab) is
always escaped.
Printable non-alphanumeric ASCII characters and the space character are escaped with a single backslash. Other characters are encoded
in hexadecimal.
"escape" also considers that you might want to include the escaped string in a larger string, so it appends a space if the escaped
string ends with a hexadecimal escape with fewer than six digits.
unescape $string
This turns something like "H65llo" into "Hello" (including quotes).
escape_ident $string
escape_ident $string, $more_chars_to_escape
This escapes $string as a CSS identifier, escaping also any characters matched by $more_chars_to_escape.
unescape_url $url_token
Returns the URL that the token represents.
escape_str $string
Returns a CSS string token containing $string (within quotes; characters possibly escaped).
unescape_str $string_token
Returns the value that a CSS string token represents.
