Quotation Marks Not Appearing
Just like my other post about quotation marks not appearing,I am having trouble with foot marks (').
They are going in as ' but are appearing on the user's end of the database as ` Minor.

When do you use quotation marks around values in an SQL Statement, and when do you ignore the quotation marks completely?
View Replies View RelatedI have a number of records I need to display in a list box (dynamic) - some have quotation marks and the system chokes on them.. whats an easy way to overcome this?
View Replies View RelatedI am trying to copy an uploaded document from one directory to another. The uploaded file (attach1) will be dynamically named. The resulting file (LName) name is based on a last name field. I have the following code but I cannot figure out how to deal with the issue of quotation amrks. Should I escape them or do I use another method?
dim fs
set fs=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
fs.MoveFile "E:Inetpubwwwrootuploads<%=(frmSend.Fields.Item("attach1").Value)%>.doc","E:Inetpubwwwrootuploads
amed<%=(frmSend.Fields.Item("LName").Value)%>.doc"
set fs=nothing
I can't seem to find the right way to do this, how do I get ASP to ignore a quotation mark in a string? " doesn't work.
View Replies View RelatedThe following removes any unwanted apostrophes before being inserted into an sql database:
Articletext = replace(articleText,"'","''")
..but if I need to remove all quotation marks, this doesnt work:
Articletext = replace(articleText,""","''") Code:
Just wonder how you guys handle the single quatation marks when you write the value of a text input into SQL server.
View Replies View RelatedI originally believe this was a database issue untill I tried to run this using just pure forms.
Issue. I have a form (basic form) and at one of the steps.. the user inputs an article name (and in this case.. there is a set of doublequotes used in this name).
I used the name ( In "Search" of the three Ethical Reviews )
<input type="text" name="Article">
Now I filled in the rest of the data Including a large section with just paragraphs of text that includes quotations marks, slashes, etc etc.
I click the submit button which Transfers all this information into a review page. The review page is another asp page that merely drags all the info from the last page and displays it on the screen for re-editing. Example Code:
I'm using Microsoft's flavor of BrowserHawk (Server.CreateObject("MSWC.BrowserType")) but when I look at my own stats through a simple test page, it says that my IE 6 is really NS 4.00. What's going on?
View Replies View RelatedI am working on building an asp forum, (I have posted a few times with questions ) and it works for the most part now, but I am trying to fix some things.
I am storing posts in a memo field. Originally it was text fields, but 255 characters is just not good enough.
Now, posts are saved fine except for 2 things:
1/ " and ' cause errors. These are causing conflicts with my INSERT SQL statement that is made. How would you get around this problem, I wonder?
2/ New lines etc are not being put into the memi field. I can live without this for the time being, but at some point I will want to implement posts being outputted in the same format they were inputted. Any advice on how to deal with this issue?
When the quote mark (") is the last character on a string, it does not output on input boxes because the application reads it as the end of the value. How can I get the quote mark to appear in input boxes?
View Replies View RelatedI support a website. When we send HTML emails from out system, we generate a variable called "str". We set that str variable to the objMail.htmlbody property of the mail object. Frequently, random spaces appear in the email when it is received by the recipient, however those spaces do not always appear in the same place (yet frequently they do). additionally, we'll sometimes see some actual HTML code in the final email, and usually shows up as a complete tab, such as "<br>", or "< TD BGCOLOR='#FFFBF0'>".
View Replies View RelatedI have installed iis and setup a new virtual directory, I then try to view it with the correct address but IE just hangs, nothing appears except the title on the titlebar and busy cursor. Going to view>source shows the source (which is correct).
This was a previously working website, I just moved the files onto a new computer. And wanted to use that instead. More info can be supplied if required. Alternatively, a good website showing how to setup iis again for asp including db's.
I have a form, that has a drop down menu with number of options eb. home, work, mobile etc. However when the choice is added to the database table it appears as a number inside the table, even though the field in the table is set to a text value (it is an MS Access DB) Why is this?
View Replies View RelatedI am working on a date function, which takes a YYYY-MM-DD input and splits it into dd,mm,yyyy format. e.g:
string1 = "2006-10-20"
Function stripDate(str)
str_len = len(str)
if str_len = 10 then
str = replace(str, "-","")
str_yr = left(str,4)
str2 = right(str,4)
str_mo = left(str2,2)
str_dy = right(str2,2)
stripDate = str_dy & "," & str_mo & "," & str_yr
else
Exit Function
end if
End Function
test = stripDate(string1)
sample output: 20,10,2006
I then want to pass the sample output into another function, but in order to do that, the date variables must be split with speech marks as follows:
"20","10","2006"
but I can't work out how to include that in the stripDate function so that it wraps the variables in speech marks. Whenever I try to include the speech marks the code returns the usual error about unterminated string constants e.g. if I replace the final line of the above function with this:
I'm asked to do Quotation and Invoive modules using asp. To come out with the Quotation or Invoice will not be a problem but I think printing them from the browser will be a problem. The quotation should be formated and printed as if it printed using excel with proper alignment and if the details exceeds the first page it should have the closing line and the next page should have the table header ect.I'm not sure whether this is possible to print in this way from the browser.
If this is not achievable I'm thinking of creating an excel file put all the data inside and open it for the user to print it from excel.Could anyone guide me which will be better way.If creating excel file is a better option sample script.
how can i decline a ' character in asp?
View Replies View RelatedOne thing I've started to notice lately is that asp seems to be very sensitive to how quotation marks are layered. Does anyone know where I can find out when to use double quotes and when to use single quotes? Code:
SelectSQLB = "SELECT * FROM TeamRosters WHERE IDNumber = Session(' 'TeamMember' & LoopCounter')"
Is the line that's giving me trouble and I'm not really sure how to layer it. Every logical combination I've tried has produced a different sort of error. Note that TeamMember# is a session variable and loopcounter is a local variable used to select which TeamMember# session variable to use. Before I've noticed that pretty much it works like this: " ' ' " but that was for two layers deep. What's the syntax for going three layers in?

and why has it suddenly started appearing in emails from an asp page using CDONTS to send an email?
I have an existing ASP file in a virtual directory. When I type server. or request. in this text file using Microsoft Script Editor I get a dropdown showing the properties available for the object.
However, if I change the extension to ASP on an existing html file, or create a new asp file I'm not getting the dropdown. I suppose this indicates the objects are not available in these new files, and they would not run properly if I tried to open them. What am I missing in setting up these new ASP files?
I have an issue where I am sending back xml content using ASP. When I flush the buffer or turn the buffering off their seems to be a end tag that gets appended to the end of this response. Code:
View Replies View RelatedI am looking for a way that I can trap the single quotation mark. If an
encoder uses single quotation mark on a textbox field, it always give me an
error because I use single quotes on the SQL statement.
I have a form that is being sent using CDONTS. The problem is the form I'm sending has a lot of special characters (it's in Spanish) and while I know how to get the chars to display correctly on the page, they're not showing up correctly in the email.
They either show up like this:
Country : Canad�;
or if I encode them, like this:
Country : Canadá
How can I get the email to display the correct character
Country : Canadá
I'm fairly new to ASP (I'm a PHP programmer) and have no clue how to do it.
I've noticed that the email is not set to encode in any special way like the equivalent for PHP......
I know this probably sounds like a newbie question, but I was under the impression that secure pages (https) don't appear in the history/address bar history list - this appears to be incorrect?
Should I really be putting some form of expiry command at the head of each of these pages if I don't want casual users to see them? I use Classic ASP so is it better to use a command via this lang or the old META methods?
we have the following code :
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" >
</head>
<body>
<form name="frm" action="mailto:srivaths_balasubramanian@satyam.com" method="POST" enctype="text/plain">
<input name="name1" value="">
<input type=submit>
</form>
</body>
</html>
which is used to send mails.while we put some chinese characters inside the text box and then click on submit button in the mail,chinese characters are appearing as garbage.
could anyone please help to resolve this issue so that it doesnt come as garbage?
what is the easiest way to display Yes/No, True/Falst, On/Off MS Access fields as check marks on an ASP page? it would be either checked or unchecked.
View Replies View RelatedI started noticing some page errors in my web application. All
of the erroring clients where using Windows XP - MSIE 6.0. It seems these
clients were passing the bookmark (fragment identifier) portion of the URL
to the server.
For example, with the following URL:
http://testsite.com/page.aspx?myquery=test#bookmark
The browser *should* send a request for:
http://testsite.com/page.aspx?myquery=test
However, these clients were sending the entire URL as the request. Thus, my
querystring parameter "myquery" had the unexpected value of "test#bookmark".
Has anyone else noticed this behavior? Perhaps it is related to the
download.ject patch (released July 2). I have yet to recieve a response to
this message, which was posted one week ago in two other newsgroups.
