However, that just makes it a regular double-quote. I guess I could try and
find out what the character number for apostrophes are, but not sure where
that is. Besides, will that mess up my SQL Server or the email if I do that?
Does anyone know of an ASP (VBScript) that can function as a Yahoo Group style replacement? This includes handling digest emails as well. All the popular forum software I've looked at, such as Snitz, can't handle it.
I have just upgraded my win98SE pc to winxp home. I am aware that PWS won't work with xp home, and I need to upgrade to XP pro for IIS. Problem is that I don't really want to upgrade unless I have to.
I've been investigating the various server options available. I need to run .asp scripts and connect to access 2000 databases. I'm not sure what servers will do this as the documentation is never that clear. Will Apache do what I want, and is there a duffers guide to getting it running?
Is it possible to make another file act likle global.asa? at the moment my project uses this file but im not sure how many hosts allow users access to it, so if i could just include another file and make it act like the global.asa that would be great.
Not strictly an ASP question, but it's for an ASP-based content management system:
I'm looking for a good, free textarea replacement application which creates a WYSIWYG interface from form textareas. I have used HTMLArea in the past but it only works on IE6.
I skinned an LMS (Learning Management System) using CSS and Javascript. The forms were skinned with niceforms.js, the site works perfectly in FF, IE 7 and IE6 but in ASP the javascript doesn't replace the images with the skinned elements. All the javascript functions initialize but the images are not placed in. Code:
While debugging why a web.config section replacement was not happening in the real web application, I tried a simplified case, no replacement is enabled and the connection string is not showing up? Code:
I’ve a form with a textbox called Message. When visitor enters text, I use Replace function to handle an apostrophe code that will receive the text and store in the database. It works fine. When I try to retrieve the text message, it doesn’t show what I’ve in the DB, but it displays, for example: I?m. It supposes to display as “I’m”
I did try: <%message= Replace(trim(RS("message")),"'","''")%> <td><p><%=message%></p></td>
I know a few ways to handle an apostrophe, but am at a loss for which i should use for this. The ways I know how to deal with it are.
alias = Replace(Request.form("alias"), "'", "''") alias = Replace(Request.form("alias"), "'", " & #39; ")
The name of the field is self explanitory. When the admin searches for a person using the "'" , " ' ' " method they find the user. But when ever we display that info anyware it has the O''conner setup. Code:
I am running into a very common problem that i cannot seem to find a solution for. I have an access database with a text field. Some of the records will contain an apostrophe. i have used the replace method to escape the apostrophe and turn it into ~~~. I can sucessfully change that back to an apostrophe everywhere but a text box. Here is my code:
Below is the code I use to send data from form to database. Problem is if an apostrophe is entered in cQuestion field or any field for that matter the form errors out. Code:
When I want to execute a SQL statement (as we all know) certain characters will cause an error. You can't execute a statement with a " in one of the parameters or else the command will stop short and result in an error.
Let's say for example that I'm trying to update a field named "code" and the value of the field "code" is: Code:
I currently have a simple html page that consists of a text box and submit button. A user supplies a quote in the text box and presses the submit button. When the submit button is pressed the quote is added to a ‘Quote’ table in an MS Access database.
This works perfectly well, however if a quote contains an apostrophe, such as … this won’t work… It will not add to the database. If I had typed in …this wont work… It would be added to the database with no problems. Code:
how to add the symbol ' (Apostrophe) to the code so that the validation accepts this within a surname such as o'neill? this is wot i hav at the minute:
With regExName .Pattern = "^[a-z]+$" .IgnoreCase = true .Global = true End With
how to accept ' or apostrophe when adding on the database? because I created a simple guestbook and when i tested it it works fine but once i add apostrophe like TOY'S etc it generates error.
I am having a problem with the apostrophe not showing up correctly when doing a mysql query and returning the data.
I am using a function to keep apostrophes from causing the queries to fail and the data that does get displayed to the user (html) turns out right 90% of the time but on a certain page it displayes the apostrophy twice instead of once. Here are the relevant pieces of code:
I am using a Replace function to replace single quotes with double when submitting a text field in the database i.e. Replace (q, "'", "' ' ") which works fine. When I retrieve the field from the database which has apostrophe I am getting 'Object expected' error message. Is there a way to fix this?
Isn't there some line of code that I can write to tell ASP to treat everything between BLAH and /BLAH as text (including the apostrophe). So that users can type a name of "O'Malley" in a form and I can retrieve it and store it in my database.
What is the correct data type to use if the phrase I'm saving to my table contains an apostrophe such as in the phrase "yesterda's news". I've tried "text" data type, I've tried "varchar" and "char". They all give me bugs when I save to the database and if I remove the apostrophe from the phrase, then it saves correctly with any data type.
