@ankit onclick='open_windowdata(this.href,this.id)' need to replace onclick="$('#wiewans_').slideToggle('slow')" — Gajendra, Aug 15 '18 at 14:21
you need to escape the double quotes like so `onclick=\"open_...slow')\" ...` — Jeff, Aug 15 '18 at 14:24
_or_ make use of php's [HEREDOC](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5673269/what-is-the-advantage-of-using-heredoc-in-php) syntax — Jeff, Aug 15 '18 at 14:25
_but_ I'd recommend to do a call to a simple js function outside, that includes the jQuery script. That would make it much more readable and maintainable — Jeff, Aug 15 '18 at 14:27
In any case unless you'll be using eval in php, you should be doing those changes on your source code, not in the variable. — Cemal, Aug 15 '18 at 14:27

Escape the double quotes with ' \ ', this way they wont get parsed as end of the string :

$status = "<div class='analysis btn btn-secondary'><a id='$poupid' href='javascript: void 0;' onclick=\"$('#wiewans_<?php echo $slno; ?>').slideToggle('slow');\" style='color:white'><strong>Not attempted</strong></a></div>";
