Description:
MEM 2.0 can define an alias for SQL statement in QUAN function.

If an alias name contains \, subsequent operation report error until refresh page.

How to repeat:
(1) define an alias name contains \.
After that if you click 'edit alias', there is no response from GUI until refresh web page.

Suggested fix:
Check a string not to cause such an error.

[Workaround]
Do not use an alias name contains \.

message:
  Bug#40966: also escape backslashes (\) in strings that are used as javascript strings.

Note that this wouldn't necessarily break the page … it basically didn't escape backslashes, so depending on what the character following the backslash was, different effects could be obtained.
