I've got a form which lets users input HTML code into a database (the user enters their code into a form field, then submits, and the HTML is written to a db). This code is then pulled out of the database onto a web page. It must validate - so needs to have all characters intact.
How do I perform an update statement which lets me insert double quotes into the database? I know it's possible to achieve a similar thing by replacing the double quotes with some other characters on insert, then replacing these other characters with double quotes when the data is pulled out of the db, but this seems a bit messy.
prints as <input type=text value=" Hello "Jim" Lad">
How can I get double quotes to display in a text box or textarea? Using a backslash or &Quot; (with Replace() e.g.) just prints out the backslash or &Quot;
I have an order form that dynamically populates item names and item ids from my MS SQL database. These values get put into three arrays that are looped based on the qty selected for insert into a cart table. Everything works except that the values are inserted into the database twice. Here's the insert code:
I have a simple form submission but the problem is my SQL insert (or update) is failing if in the text field there is any single quotes (') I tried running the like replace(textfield,"'","") to just remove them but it will still error out on me. is there any other way to format the variable, do I need to use an escape character?
Is it possible to grab stock quotes (with of course the 15min delay!!) and place within an ASP page?written in ASP.it is possible to read HTML content on webpages without outputting them and then using the values etc
I'm trying to make a dynamic table where on the left side items are placed and on the right side the item clicked is shown. For an example look at www.uitdagen.nl uitgaan->cafes
This all works fine except when I use a ' or a newline a error is generated because in dhtml a ' is used to open and close a string. When i use a ' in the string it goes wrong because i already close the string in the string.
If already tried to use chr(39) etc. But this won't work because this still will generate a ' for the dhtml.
Running into a what I thought should be a small problem but it's going on an hour and I still can't figure it out
Reading an excel file and running queries on Sheet names. The problem is when there is a single quote in the sheet name.
selectQuery = "SELECT * FROM Dave's Sheet"
I tried to use
selectQuery = "SELECT * FROM Dave's Sheet"
But that doesn't work either.
It keeps bombing the query. Not matter what I try I can't get this to work. I can't replace the single quotes because then it can't find the tab name. Any ideas?
how i could insert data into my DB that contained apostrophes. for example, I wanted to insert Bailey's well, my SQL statement was being cut off when it hit the ' and i was getting all sorts of errors. i was writting some complex stuff to take out the ' then re-insert it when being displayed.lots of work then i thought, what if i replace my ' with " in my insert statement.
like i said, some of you may know this, but i thought id share my experience with you just in case someone runs across the same problem.
I am writing an asp app for generating quotes. What I would like to do is allow the user to edit the quote lines without having to open a new page each line.
On the quote I have created a loop which goes through the recordset and populates a sort of data grid. Can you use javascript or something so the user can click an edit icon on the appropriate line item in the grid and edit the line details there instead of having to open another page to edit the line item.
Select * from MATABLE WHERE title = '"&myvariable&"' ORDER BY title
so some of my title have single quote/apostrophe in them, ex: Don't know me . so when I tried to access those article with that kind of title I get the error message Missing operator. So is there a way to have my title be all right? a function maybe?
I am having a problem with a single quote in my URL. I use HTMLEncode and all is good on my machine, but when I test it with a browser from a different machine, I get 403 on invalid characters. More, it seems to me that the URL gets truncated after that single quote that I have in my URL.
I 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?
I am having trouble getting the 's and +s on this statement correct. The first select line works as it is supposed to but the 2nd one does not. Can anyone correct this and perhaps tell me/point me in the direction of the rule of thumb for stuff like this?
I seem to end up with too many double quotes when using this clean up function.. either that or I am missing a display function when I display the details from the dB.
I only really wanted the microsoft ouble quote to become one set of double quote instead of double as I have here but I can't get away with anything less.
essentially when I input a � I get a "" when I only want ".
I have a rather basic question. I have a simple username and password front end that queries a SQL database, I run into problems when one of the user names has a single quote in it (IE: O'brian).
I get the "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80040e14' Line 1: Incorrect syntax near 'brian'." error message, any clues on how to display those particular cases? is there anything in particular that should be done to my SQL statement?
I have a code that goes to the url of the company.My problem is that if a company name has a single quote in it,it tries to end the statement.I tried a replace as you will see,but still doesn't work.Heres my code:
obviously in standard asp. and i'm not even sure where to begin. I currently have it set up for a random quote every time a user refreshes the site. This was no problem. Any help or if you can point me in the right direction.
Now, in the above, I would like to be able to put the location field as 'Don's room'. In other words, I would like to handle the aprostrophe after Don. With this in mind I am changing the code as following: Code:
I have a form online, and I don't know if people are double clicking the submit button or what is happening really, but sometimes I will have two or more matching entries in a row. Is there any code I can use to filter out double clicks or tripple clicks even? These forms are done in asp and sent to sendcontactform.asp to process.
I am using an HTML form to post data to my database, but when a users enter contact info into my database I am getting the same info twice, although the user only submits once. Here is my code:
I'm trying to pass data from a <textarea> box to a confirmation page and then pass the same information from the confirmation page to a final page.
When the information gets passed to the final page it is truncating it where there are double quotes. I've tried to do a replace() function to try and escape the quotes out but it's not working.
What I would like to do is the following: Menu box 1 populates all 50 states from an SQL table. Use selects State. Menu box 2 gets populated from SQL table with Al counties in that State. User selects prefered county then hits submit The part I am having trouble with is populating the county menu box.
I have a active server page where records are displayed from a query. The display right now is read only. However, with text box this display can also be edited. The first column shows category while the second category shows category total sales.
I would like to double click on category field to get to another asp page that would show the details of sales for that category value double clicked.
My question is: If there is any double click event that would allow me to pass values to open another asp page.
