Quoting problem with server side scripts

I'm using Smarty. The problem involves misinterpretting opening and closing quotes when the source will be changed before arriving at the user's browser. In my templates I have something like this:

<tr
onclick="location.href='{$folder}/{$file.filename|escape:"javascript"}'">

which turns into this:

<tr javascript="" onclick="location.href='{$folder}/{$file.filename|escape:">

Obviously problems like this break the scripts and make the page unusable. What are my options?

I'm guessing I can play around with the quote marks used in various places until it works, but is there something I can do to avoid going through all the templates already on the site? And if I *have* to do this what unix shell tools can I use with what regular expression to find all the files that will give me problems?
