I have SQL database and I am trying to replace single quotes with double single quotes to prevent SQL injection. The code is not replacing. Any suggestions?
PHP Code:

strSQL = strSQL & "FirstName = '" & replace(firstNamefield, "'", "''") & "', "
strSQL = strSQL & "LastName = '" & replace(lastNamefield, "'", "''") & "' "
strSQL = strSQL & "WHERE Username = '" & replace(session("svUsername"), "'", "''") & "'"
mlConn.Execute(strSQL)
If I replace "a" with "b", and then I replace "b" with "a", shouldn't I get the same result? That is what I am trying to encode and decode with Replace() function, but it is giving me different things when I replace and replace again. Here is what I am talking about: Code:

View Replies View RelatedI've got a function that I use to replace ' marks so the page will insert properly into a database - typically I use .Code:
whatever= request.form("whatever")
whatever = replace(whatever,"'", "''")
However, I've got some code that I unfortunately inherited from someone else that I can't get the replace to work:Code:
call buildquery (colq,valq,retq,"whatever")
colq = "(" & colq & ")"
valq = "(" & valq & ")"
ssql = "insert into table_name " & colq & " values " & valq
I was trying to do something in the call buildquery line to add a replace, but that doesn't seem to work.

View Replies View RelatedI come across this often
PHP Code:
Replace(rs.fields("Headline_f"),"''","'")
Where rs.fields("Headline_f") is actually empty.
I usually use
PHP Code:

Headline_f=Replace(rs.fields("Headline_f"),"''","'")
END IF
Is there a better way to handle this?

My form gets populated from an access database. Now in the database there are fields containg <br>. While in a normal page everything works as it's supposed to, in my listbox the <br> shows as it is. What I would like to do is replace it with a space so I've used this:
<option value="<%=(rsProducts.Fields.Item("CatNum").Value)%>"><%=replace(rsProducts.Fi elds.Item("NotesR").Value),"<BR>"," "%></option>
but it doesn't seem to work.
What exactly am I doing wrong here?
I've tried EVERY way i can think of to do this replace function, basically when i go to insert "Do's and Dont's into the database it cuts it off at "Do" because of the ' now ill show you my section of code that i have it in currently:
curdescription = trim(replace(arrTemp(4), "'", "''"))
I have it this way and it doesnt work, and i even had it
curdescription = trim(arrTemp(4))
curdescription = replace(curdescription, "'", "''")
i use the URLencode function and it changes my form text to: this+is+it%21
ok, this is good, but when I use it in a URL, it includes "this" but then the link dies and the rest is just text, the user must then copy and paste the whole address in the browser. Anyway to get around this?
what's wrong with this string?
" WHERE InStr (" & request("Field") & ", " & chr(34) & replace(replace(request("SearchWord"),"*","%"), "'", "''") & chr(34) & ") > 0 " & _
i have some sql data that has " and ' in it. can someone tell me how to do a replace on those so they display correctly?
View Replies View RelatedI am not sure if this is a question for this forum or the IIS forum but here goes. I have a dedicated server on which I am hosting about 80 websites at the moment, all of which have been created by copying a template site. All of these sites have an identical structure and are located in the same directory on the server, C:Inetpubvhosts. Several times when I have needed to make an adjustment to the sites I have to go into the remote desktop connection to the server and go site by site, copying and pasting files. For example, as each site has the same pages, ie., map.asp, sometimes I make a change to that page and have to copy it to every site. Could I write some sort of script using the FSO and execute it from one site and have it loop through each site on the server making the neccessary change(s)?
