I have a client that will be submitting a form that will have copy/text in 3 languages, English, German, and Italian. The last two languages have a lot of special characters. What I am finding is that when the form is submitted the characters for german and italian get stored in an Access database as jibberish if you will. how to make sure that the text is submitted, stored, and then displayed as it should be?
I have a partner sending me by post method to an asp page some text (xml string).
It arrives to my page encoded as follows %9a%2f%Purchaseorder%3....f
The < and > and spaces are replaced by nuùmbers and percentage sign I am using Request.BinaryRead(BytesTotal) and then doing response write and I am getting exactly the same string with the encoding How can tell my asp page to translate the encoded text to normal text?
I have created ASP with database application over a PHP based software. My problem is I get data from Excel files with an encoding as SJIS (Shift-JIS) and save it to the database.
And the PHP software is the one that displays data in the web but using UTF-8 (unicode). I need an API in ASP that will convert charactrers from SJIS to UTF-8.
I'm having the following problem: I have an ASP page that calls another JSP page, passing some strings as parameters. The strings have special characters, such as "ó" and "ê" (Portuguese characters). When passing those parameters, the JSP page receives them as UTF-8 characters, with 2 bytes each, but we would like them to be treated as ISO-8859-1 characters. Code:
I've been doing a lot of work both creating and consuming web services, and I notice there seems to be a discontinuity between a number of the different cogs in the wheel centering around windows-1252 and that it is not equivalent to iso-8859-1.
Looking in the registry under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTMIMEDatabaseCharset and Codepage, it seems that all variations on iso-8859-1 (latin1, etc) are mapped to code page 1252, which I'm assuming is windows-1252 in execution terms. So if I set the codepage=1252 and Response.Charset=iso-8859-1 in ASP, it seems that I'm *really* going to get out windows-1252, not iso-8859-1.
This becomes somewhat noticable in html since a lot of commonly used elements (like the free-floating bullet •), which *aren't* really 8859-1, get interpreted as such in browsers. Code:

We have a MS Access database, and we are working with greek encoding. When we insert data into the database, it's fine, everything in the database is stored properly in greek. However, when we retrieve from the database, everything is return as "????S???" (something like that with a lot of question marks).
What we've tried so far are adding CODEPAGE="1253" on top of the script, but that doesn't seem to help. I also tried response.Charset="UTF8", but no luck.
Anyone know what else can I try to have the data being retrieved with proper encoding?
I am inserting records into an Access table using the OleDbCommand class. The insert values come from a basic web form with text boxes. If the values contain ' or " it creates a problem. What is the proper way to escape these characters? Surely there's a built-in function for it somewhere.
I am using an Access database, and for a field called size the client entered some values such as 20" x 20" Unfortunately when I try to print that field to the page, the cursor stops typing at 20 because I'm assuming it considers the first " inside the 20" x 20" to be the end of the string.
I am simply trying to print the whole string <%=(rsProdsUpdate("size1"))%>
Is there a workaround this without having to change all the values in the database?
I want to move my only window shosted client to linux. The site they have access a Microsoft Access database with the below code but i can't get it to work under Linux.
I have an ASP page needs to access a remote MS Access2000 database, I got error "The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file 'F:Collect.mdb'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data. ".
The 'F:' is a mapped drive from remote machine where the access database loactes. If I copy the database back to local box, no problem.
I'm looking to make an online multiplayer game which will utilize Access Database... basically I require thousands of people writing and reading from the same database... I was wondering if this is possible for that... or is mdb file restricted to 1 person at a time...
If it is limited what would you suggest as the best way to control an interactive online environment? .txt files possibly?
I have a page that got a textbox to submit a string to another page, when the second page recieve the string the url of that page looks like this: Code:
When I run the ASP page for the first time, I find out, that the Cookie file name contains some several special characters such as %5F, which are encoded with a URLEncode function. So, I have the following string (after convert): ....
I'm using ASP to load an XML file. German Umlaute work fine all the time (I use <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> so they should). Except this time where I add a text to a child which I then fill with text which contains an "ä". The ASP-error is:
"An Invalid character was found in text content." (Or I believe that's the English translation, I get a German one, as I'm on a German system.)
I read something about this error however even some suggested fixed don't work. I installed the latest MSXML (4) and use "Msxml2.DOMDocument.4.0" for server-createObject.
Actually all I want to do is save some text coming from a textarea back into a little file.
I'm trying to use a popup window initiated from javascript to display pictures. Some of the directories and pictures contain &'s in the name or path. I've read the posts about Encoding but I cannot seem to get the get this working. Encoding the path to replace the & with %26 just gives me a page not found.
<script language="javascript"> function NewWindow(url, w, h) { url = "http://intranet/Marketing_Photos/" + url; window.open(url,"_blank","width=" + w + ",height=" + h + ",left=0,top=0,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes"); } </script>
url is the subdir and picture name, i.e. subdir/pic.jpg
Mareting_Photos is an IIS Virtual Directory pointing to a different server. Everything works, the pictues display, except when I pass a url with an & in the path then I get the page not found error.
I can type in http//intranet/Marketing_Photos/SomeDir/Some%26PicName.jpg (replacing the & with %26) in the browser address bar but I get a page not found.

i need to connect to a dbf database with ansi/oem encoding the connection is ok but i have problem with page encoding the characters don't display as they should! does anyone have any suggestions??
I've finished my whole application and now I don't like the whole session variables that I am using. I have a form, user fills in info clicks submit and using CDOSYSMail an email link gets created with an encoded query string. i.e http://www.yahoo.ca?#$@%@&#%#$@&^@%# which translates into http://www.yahoo.ca?userID=54&LocationID=Denver.
Now when the user get's this email and clicks on the link I have a decode function(again using BASE64) that takes that url and decodes it to http://www.yahoo.ca?userID=54&LocationID=Denver. My app then connects to the database and pulls info associated with that querystring. I am doing the passing from page to page using session variables. I do not want to do this? Any ideas How I can take what is encoded in the url link and decode it on the next page? Let me know if there is a simple solution to this. I love the encode/decoding function.
I am getting an error in my attempt to run RSS feeds via ASP
Error... encoded as "utf-8", but your server is reporting "US-ASCII" I've tried windows-1251 but do not seem to be able to change the output from the servers default
The problem is the data from an Access db contains hyphens and ampersands etc which cause a problem if the db content in the xml is read as US-ASCII
How can I encode the page in ASP so that it can display the correct encodingmfor xml.
I have an oracle database where I store my html files on. While uploading I call the server.HTMLencode function to encode the blog but that's not enough. Once that is called I would like to encode the rest of the text through UTF8. Is there a predefined function that I can use to do this?
Does anyone know of a good way to encode/encrypt ASP files so the code is hidden, but still able to be read by IIS when requested? I have done some searches and have found that using vbscript.encode would work, but that it is very weak and tools are readily available to decode them. I have also seen two products that claim to do this, but they either just used vbscript.encode, or didn't work even on extremely simple asp files.
if I read an XML document using ASP without any encoding, ican read it fine, but if an XML document contains an encoding parameter, like the following, ...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
... then it doesnt work and just stops working with no errors.
When I get the following input stream of chunked data I ge Request.TotalBytes = -1 because there is not Content-Length.
The following will work because I hardcoded the correct length:
TotalBytes = 16 strBRequest = Request.BinaryRead(TotalBytes) I get: 16 bytes of data (see below)
However, if I don't know the length and try to use something > 16 li 100 then I get at error and the TotalBytes is set to 16 and th strBRequest is empty.
Does anybody know how to determine how to get around this. I am usin Transfer-Encoding: chunked because I do not know how much data is bein uploaded (could be very very large).
I have an asp page that shows the contents of HTML files in a textarea using the Server.HTMLEncode method. It works perfectly with HTML files having english contents. When trying to show HTML with Hebrew I see all the text correct, except the hebrew part, appearing as jibberish. I use the hebrew encoding "windows-1255" in all the files with codepage=1255 in the beginng of the asp page. Using a special text editor I detected the encoding of the jibberish text - it's windows-1252.The problem started when i uploaded the page to a remote server. in my local server it runs ok.I should say that all the html pages are readable when entering their url in the browser and i can also make changes in hebrew to a database using asp (from that remote server).I think the problem has something to do with the way the remote server opens the file.
im sending a mail with CDONTS now if im combining 2 languages in the same mail, i have a problem (languages are hebrew and english) if im using dir=rtl the words in english appear backwards (the letters order is reversed) if im using dir=lrt the hebrew is reversed . how can i fix this thing.
I'm trying to make an xml doc that gets passed to sql server, but I keep getting an xml parsing error. When i printed out the xml string, the encoding is not on there despite my putting it there... Code:
There has to be a simple method for un-encoding output from Server.URLEncode or Server.HTMLEncode using server-side VBScript but I just can't find it. I'd appreciate it very much if some sharp individual here would shove me in the right direction.
I am trying to use ServerXMLHTTP to post data containing Japanese characters, but the data posts as question marks, boxes or just random ascii characters. Here is the code I am using:
