CRM 2011 FetchXML returning invalid XML - dynamics-crm-2011

Question

I am trying to retrieve an account but the fetchXML is returning invalid XML:
function SelectLoadOutTransactionCurrency(id)
{
debugger;
var _oService = new FetchUtil(_sOrgName, _sServerUrl);
var sFetch = "<fetch mapping='logical'>" +
"<entity name='salesorder'>"+
"<attribute name='transactioncurrencyid' />" +
"<filter type='and'>" +
"<condition attribute = 'salesorderid' operator='eq' value='" + id + "'/>" +
"</filter>" +
"</entity>" +
"</fetch>";
var fetchResult =_oService.Fetch(sFetch, null);
return fetchResult.results[0].attributes["transactioncurrencyid"].guid;
}
function GetSuppliers(){
debugger;
_oService = new FetchUtil(_sOrgName, _sServerUrl);
var sFetch = "<fetch version='1.0' output-format='xml-platform' mapping='logical' distinct='false'>" +
"<entity name='account'>" +
"<attribute name='name' />" +
"<attribute name='accountid' />" +
"<order attribute='name' descending='false'/>" +
"<filter type='and'>" +
"<condition attribute='new_accounttype' operator='eq' value='100000001'/>" +
"</filter>" +
"</entity>" +
"</fetch>";
var fetchResult =_oService.Fetch(sFetch, null);
return fetchResult;
}
function addOption(selectbox, text, value) {
var optn = document.createElement("OPTION");
optn.text = text;
optn.value = value;
selectbox.options.add(optn);
}
The name attribute has an invalid character (').. Is there a way to escape this character or is there an update rollup in place?
