I am having a problem with the apostrophe not showing up correctly when doing a mysql query and returning the data.
I am using a function to keep apostrophes from causing the queries to fail and the data that does get displayed to the user (html) turns out right 90% of the time but on a certain page it displayes the apostrophy twice instead of once. Here are the relevant pieces of code:
I'm trying to query a database where some records contain apostrophes in them. Is there an effective way to do this?

We have an asp-application which sets the cookie on first login. The cookie
will never be touched during user access. The user can work the whole day,
but after 6 to 7 hours, the cookie get 2-4 new asp-sessionid's thus
overwriting the very first entries in the cookie. Does anyone had the same
problem or has a solution. The server is a w2003 enterprise the client has
windows xp sp2.
I'd want to make a custom class that will generate breadcrumb navigation for my site via a recursive query, e.g. Home > Page1 > Subpage 1. I've structured my database with hierarchical parent/child relationships.
I'm using ASP VBScript, and I have a table structure similar to the following: Code:
I am getting a bug with regards to submitting an ASP form. Here's the scenario:
I am entering info in a form and calling an ASP page to process it. I am collecting info from the fields like so Code:
I’ve a form with a textbox called Message. When visitor enters text, I use Replace function to handle an apostrophe code that will receive the text and store in the database.
It works fine.
When I try to retrieve the text message, it doesn’t show what I’ve in the DB, but it displays, for example: I?m. It supposes to display as “I’m”
I did try:
<%message= Replace(trim(RS("message")),"'","''")%>
<td><p><%=message%></p></td>
I know this is a very commonly asked question, but I can't find a solution
anywhere that I have looked.
I need to take the text that will be typed in paragraph form by the user
(textarea field) and do two things with it:
1. Store it in a SQL Server database field
2. Send it in an email upon page submit.
Of course, single quotes have caused problems, so I have this code:
strInternalDesc =
Replace(Trim(Request.Form("InternalDesc")),"'","''")
Problem is, it shows up like this in the email that is sent:
==============================
We''re in the process of
==============================
I would like to get rid of the double apostrophes, but not sure how. Went to
an article on ASPFAQ, and saw something which directed me to do this:
strInternalDesc =
Replace(Trim(Request.Form("InternalDesc")),"'",chr(34))
However, that just makes it a regular double-quote. I guess I could try and
find out what the character number for apostrophes are, but not sure where
that is. Besides, will that mess up my SQL Server or the email if I do that?
i have a textarea in my form, and it worked. but if the input text contains apostrophe, i would get sth like this:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Driverserror '80040e14'
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression ''rtert'','Judy Nadia Jolonius');'. /saveRemarks.asp, line 195
how can i make asp ignore the apostrophe?
I know a few ways to handle an apostrophe, but am at a loss for which i should use for this. The ways I know how to deal with it are.
alias = Replace(Request.form("alias"), "'", "''")
alias = Replace(Request.form("alias"), "'", " & #39; ")
The name of the field is self explanitory. When the admin searches for a person using the "'" , " ' ' " method they find the user. But when ever we display that info anyware it has the O''conner setup. Code:
I am running into a very common problem that i cannot seem to find a solution for. I have an access database with a text field. Some of the records will contain an apostrophe. i have used the replace method to escape the apostrophe and turn it into ~~~. I can sucessfully change that back to an apostrophe everywhere but a text box. Here is my code:
response.write "<input type=text name=title" & icount & " value='" & replace(rs("title") ,"~~~", "'") &"' size=55><br>"
Below is the code I use to send data from form to database. Problem is if an apostrophe is entered in cQuestion field or any field for that matter the form errors out. Code:

I currently have a simple html page that consists of a text box and submit button. A user supplies a quote in the text box and presses the submit button. When the submit button is pressed the quote is added to a ‘Quote’ table in an MS Access database.
This works perfectly well, however if a quote contains an apostrophe, such as … this won’t work… It will not add to the database. If I had typed in …this wont work… It would be added to the database with no problems. Code:
how to add the symbol ' (Apostrophe) to the code so that the validation accepts this within a surname such as o'neill? this is wot i hav at the minute:
With regExName
.Pattern = "^[a-z]+$"
.IgnoreCase = true
.Global = true
End With
how to accept ' or apostrophe when adding on the database? because I created a simple guestbook and when i tested it it works fine but once i add apostrophe like TOY'S etc it generates error.
View Replies View RelatedI am using a Replace function to replace single quotes with double when
submitting a text field in the database i.e. Replace (q, "'", "' ' ")
which works fine. When I retrieve the field from the database which has
apostrophe I am getting 'Object expected' error message. Is there a
way to fix this?
Isn't there some line of code that I can write to tell ASP to treat everything between BLAH and /BLAH as text (including the apostrophe). So that users can type a name of "O'Malley" in a form and I can retrieve it and store it in my database.
View Replies View RelatedWhat is the correct data type to use if the phrase I'm saving to my table contains an apostrophe such as in the phrase "yesterda's news". I've tried "text" data type, I've tried "varchar" and "char". They all give me bugs when I save to the database and if I remove the apostrophe from the phrase, then it saves correctly with any data type.
View Replies View RelatedMy code retrieves a username and a password from a form. Then this information is compared to some usernames and passwords that are stored in a database. The important thing here is that the comparison must be case sensitive meaning that "passWord" is not the same thing as "password"
I have this code, working fine in access 2003
SQL = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE StrComp(username_column,'" & entered_username_in_form & "',0) = 0 AND StrComp(password_column,'" & entered_password_in_form & "',0) = 0"
but get the following error when I run it against my sql 2005 database.

I don't know the corresponding t-sql for the query.

I am running a querry on an access database and have set the number of records/page displayed at 20. if there are more than 20 records returned, then 1st page will show the first 20, the next page will show next 20 and so on....
The trouble:
the count of total records displayed is correct and the first page is displayed correctly. But when i click on *Next* to go to the next page, all the records of the database get displayed (not the 2nd page of records from the query).
I am using ASP/MS ACCESS to see how I can query the same database, via 2 formfields.
{name: - search}Textfield 1: - Search by Category
AND/OR By
{name: - searchT}Textfield 2: - Location
Currently,
strSearchwords = Trim(Request.QueryString("search")); where "search" is the name of Textfield1
Which is fine, but how can I set it so that on Submit, the string from search, and searchT are somehow joined together into one string?

In Access you use "*" + [passed variable] + "*", + can be replaced with &
Calling a parameterized query in Access requires % be used in place of *,
however, all that I have read show dynamic SQL passed to Access:
WHERE [some column] LIKE '" & ASPvar & "' % ORDER BY ...
However, my call is similar to:
conn.qMyLookup strVar, rs
If I modify the query in Access to:
"%" & [passed variable] & "%"
I get all records. If I only put it at the end, as suggested, I only get
matches at the end, not throughout the column. Code:

I want to use the instr function, but return results from it depending on surtain functions, I can't realy explain so I'll show my example:
I have a string in wich some word I want to find might be in diffrent Capital Letters order, I want the Instr function to return all the values of the place of that word (avcourse I'll run a for and increase the starting point of the Instr func until it returns 0). The instinct thought is to use the Lcase or the Ucase functions, but in this case I don't know how to use them. In the same Idea I wanted to use the Instr Func with the trim Func, But Its realy the same principle if I just understood how to do so.
Is it possible to write sql query to fetch records from
specific record number?
lets say i have one variable and it stores values such as
1,2,3 or so...
if variable contains, i want to fetch records from 1 to
20.
if it contains 2, then records should be from 21 to 40.
for 3, records would be 41 to 60...
what could be the sql for that?
i dont wannna fetch whole table and then filtering
through code..
i have a table called checkrenewal
it has a field called date_renewal
data is stored like this
03/20/2007
05/17/2008
10/21/2006
09/18/2006
09/04/2006
so what i want to do is display only records that are in month of sept for 2006
so there will be 2 records
so next month is Oct 2006 so only display one record
so depending on which month and which year it is display only those records.
I can't write the sum of a certain colum in a table of a db.
<%

Set sql_Sum_Tax_RS = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
sql_Sum_Tax_RS.Open sql_Sum_Tax, conn1
%>
<%=sql_Orders_Placed_RS("sql_Orders_Placed_RS_Var")%>
That last line generates this error:
ADODB.Recordset error '800a0cc1'
Item cannot be found in the collection corresponding to the requested name or ordinal.
i have a table and the fields are
gender
weight
points
the records for example are
Male 55 2.0
Male 60 3.12
Male 65 3.87
Male 70 3.99
so i need to find out the points when the user selects gender and enters the weight
people are allowed to enter weights between 55 and 70
say for example someone enters weight as 55 his points will be 2.0
if someone enters weight as 64 i want the points to be 3.12
I have an Access database of literature that I want to search using an ASP page using multiple search criteria (author, title, year, discipline,etc).
I'm using a form to collect the criteria from the user and then sending it to an ASP page. I'm creating the SQL statement using variables that pick up values passed from the form.
Code:
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM Literature WHERE " & _
"(Author Like '%" & mauthor & "%') AND " & _
"(Title Like '%" & mtitle & "%') AND " & _
"(Journal Like '%" & mjournal & "%') AND "& _
"(ArticleBook Like '%" & mBookOption & "%') AND " & _
"(Year Like '%" & myear & "%') " & _
"ORDER BY Title ASC;"
This would probably work if I used "OR" in my SQL, but I want to be able to use "AND." My problem is that I'm not getting records that have null values in some of these fields.
Ive been working with queries through asp on a mdb file. The biggest problem i have is

I am learning ASP from the Wrox Begining E-Commerce book, which uses Visual Basic to create a DLL and it also uses MTS as well.
I have been trying to find hosting not realising the problem with registering custom dll's on server and know realise that this isn't the best way to do this.
I wanted to know if there was anything i could do to change this. I have read a little bit about the Global.isa file but am not sure about this.
Could i just transfer all the code into the global.isa and then use it like this.
My website access a sql database and uses a mts pipeline for order processing.
I don't have enough experience of ASP to re-write this code and am not sure of what to do.
I have tried searching the web but am not really finding any solutions that I understand.
