[Slogger] Problems with whitelist 2

[Ken Schutte]

Just a few days ago someone pointed out a bug with escaping quote marks 
in variables... the latest version at kenschutte.com/slogger has that 
fixed, so maybe it would work...

Another thing that might help is to use:

sloggerGetVar("title").match(...

instead of "$title".  this might alleviate some of the problems with 
escaping special characters.
