View RepliesI know there is a way of stripping out special characters from a string however I need a way of stripping out "" marks from a string or what i really want is to replace all double ("") marks in a string with single ('') marks before inserting the string into a database. Is there a way of doing this in ASP?
View Replies View RelatedI'm trying to strip out none alphanumeric characters (and a couple of punctuation marks) from a string before inserting into a database.
I've put in my code below, basically I thought I'd loop through each character in turn and pass it through a regular expression to check its validity. If it passes I'll add it to a global variable ('validString') if it fails I'll remove it.
But I can't get my Mid() function to accept 'i' as a value so it won't loop. Code:
I'm trying to catch some characters in a string before they are entered into a database that are not ASCII and convert them to ASCII characters. The characters in question are the angular double quotes but this could be associated with similar occurences. I want to check for left angular double quotes [“] or right angular double quotes [“] and replace them with straight double quotes ["].
(I'm not actually storing the HTML equivalents - they are simply there to give you an idea of which characters I'm on about.)a way of catching these buggers? I've tried using chr(8220) (the numeric code for one of the illegal characters apparently) but ASP has a problem working with numbers outside the character map.
can you replace multiple characters with only one line of code?
View Replies View RelatedI had created a macro to read data from an excel sheet and write the values to a text file. I had used "ActiveSheet.Range("GB" & k).Value" command to read the values from the excel.some cells in the excel sheet is having two lines value and four lines data, the text file is generating that value in a single line. (Ex. the cell value in address column is in four lines and should display in four lines in the text file generated from the macro)
Can i do something in the excel sheet or in vb script to read the address value line by line and write line by line in text file?

I'm querying a text field with an 8000 character limit. The text also
contains HTML tags like <p> <br> and more. Is there a way to strip all HTML

I have an encrypted .txt file created by asp. Its formatted with lines etc. Title followed by description underneath. I need to read this into ASP now, and parse it line by line. On each line read, run the function to unencrpt and add line to a new file.

I have an asp page that reads the contents of a database and creates an xml news feed. I have code that strips out the <BR> and <P></P> tags, but it looks one of the databases I'm trying to read from uses only <P> without the closing tag.

PHP has a function called nl2br() which inserts HTML line breaks before all newlines in a string. Is there an ASP equivalent to this?
View Replies View RelatedI've managed to code a function that will straightly replace some given character to another, for security of my pages. For example, I can convert (") to " and (') to ´ ..etc in the form(text field) that allow user to post some data to be stored in the db. But then I don't want the user to write it in HTML tag, and I want that when user press [Enter] on the keyboard, then I can redisplay the message in the way that the user really type in (new line). What I'm thinking is if I can replace the [ENTER] pressing to <br> to be stored in my db. But I didn't found the way I can do that.
/n such as in c++ didn't solve. Anybody knows? I use ASP VBscripts/
Does my question clear?

I am trying to trap my ASP errors using the ASP error object.
Everything works almost fine, but I can't retrieve the line number where
the error occured. Here is a little piece of my code:
==========================
If Err <> 0 Then
Response.Status = "500 Internal Server Error"
Response.Expires = 0
Dim ErrorContent
ErrorContent = ErrorContent & "Description: " & Err.Description & vblf
ErrorContent = ErrorContent & "Line: " & Err.Line & vblf
ErrorContent = ErrorContent & "Number: " & Err.Number & vblf
ErrorContent = ErrorContent & "Source: " & Err.Source & vblf
What does this line mean?
streamFile.SaveToFile m_sUploadFolder & fileItem.FileName, 2

1. I have a form that insterts data in a database
2. I show this information in a pop-up page
3. When the user enter too much content it makes all the
pop-up too widther and it breaks the design.
I want determinate a specific number of caracters and then
do a line break.
I guess I need something like this:
replace(sql.field,char(10),'<br>')
in the way I show my content
like this:
<%=rs.fields("nombre").value%>
How can I do it?
Im developing a site for an organisation im a member of. Im trying to make updating the site a simple as possible for the organistions staff, some of which are not the computer literate. So i have made a kind of template site where the content of all the pages held in a access db. I have then made an admin backend where organisation staff can login and update the contents of pages simply by editing text in a text box and clicking the update button.
However, i've come across a problem. When users leave a line break in the text box the output page doesnt display the gap. I am using a simple response write to display the contents of the attribute on the page. Currently the only way im managing to get line breaks is to enter a '<br>' into the text box on the admin page.
How could i make it so when a line is left blank on the text box the database records this and displays it on the output page?

We've built a page that allows users to enter items that will ultimately
become a list. One particular user enters them into the textarea on the
page and for some reason always puts a hard return into the textarea before
she submits. This goes into SQL as a line break and it's screwing up how
the page renders.
How do I find this via code so that I can replace it? I've tried looking
for chr(13) + chr(10) and vbCr and vbCrLf and replacing them with "" but it
doesn't seem to work. Am I missing something?
I'm trying to save to a message field with the field type, memo.
Say I save the message:
"Test 1

When I response.write it, it will turn out like " Test 1 Test 2 Test 3"
losing all the line breaks and such
If I response.write it within <textarea> </textarea> tags it comes back
