What are you trying to do?.Are you trying to create id on Html tag or are you trying to reference an ID on html when you click button so certain action is performed by JS. — Krishneil, Nov 06 '17 at 03:51

Your question is more like: How do I use quotes inside quotes. The solution is to use single quotes if you want double quotes in the string, and double quotes if you want single quotes in the string.

'<button class="tablinks" onclick="openFolder(event, '+'"Folder1")">Folder 1</button>'

alternatively use backticks; template literals https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Template_literals making the task much easier:

`<button class="tablinks" onclick="openFolder(event, 'Folder1')">Folder 1</button>`
