When you want to put double quotes inside a string, how do you verify that the double quotes are not the end to a string? For example, what if you want to write this. Code:
"Response.Write("The words "DEV SHED FORUMS" are in double quotes")
I am trying to output the following:-
Response.write ("<a class=""events"" href=")
response.write ("http://")
Response.write (rs.Fields("eventURL"))
Response.write (">")
Response.write (rs.Fields("eventURL"))
Response.write ("</a>")
It outputs OK, except for the fact that <a class="events" href=whatever> - theres no quotes around the value in the 'href' element. I have tried to include these but keep on getting ASP errors, obviously because I have put the additional quotes in the ASP in the wrong place.

I've got an HTML page with a series of links that are intended to search a category listing in a database.
for example
link 1 has a querystring of "?subid=Boats"
link 2 has a querystring of "?subid=Cars & Trucks"
link 3 has a querystring of "?subid=Men's & Women's Outerwear"
etc
As long as the subid doesn't contain any single quotes or any special characters such as the "&", my SQL works ok and the records are retrieved. 'm using Request("subid") to get my querystring value.Is there any way I can escape the single quotes or other special characters in the Request("subid") so it won't break the SQL?
