Ouch!
You're using a session variable to store the whole of the page body?
A session variable uses a portion of the servers RAM to store information, so if you store a large amount of information in a session variable, like a whole page which is likely to be equivalent to a couple of Mb or more you will be taking this amount for each and every user using the site.
So, lets say you are storing 5Mb of info in a session variable and there are 100 people using the site, that's 500Mb of the servers RAM you are using. As you can see, at this rate, you will quickly use up all the available RAM on the server and the performace of your web site will be terrible. If you are on a shared server, all the sites on that server will take a performance hit.
Session variables should be used with caution and only to store small amounts of data, like a username, which only takes up a few bytes.

In answer to your question, single quotes are valid HTML. e.g.
varHTML = "<table width='100%' border='0' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0'>"
<%= varHTML %>
