I create an ASP file using fso.createtextfile. But how do I avoid double quotes and <% %signs when writing to file?
FileAsp.WriteLine("<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252">")
FileAsp.WriteLine("<!-- #Include file="file.asp" -->")
FileAsp.WriteLine(" <% =Blah %>")
If rs("MyString") is Hello "Jim" Lad
<input type=text value="<%=rs("MyString")%>">
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;
Here's the line I need to insert into an ASP page.
<script Language="JavaScript" src="/blarg.js"></script></head>
Right now it throws off the asp include with the quotes.
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.
How should I pass a " (doble-quote) character to response.write() in order for it to be sent to the output ?

I am reading from an xml file and the trying to write the results out to a text file on the server using an asp script
THere is some kind of special characters in one of the fields so it is
causing an error:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0005'
Invalid procedure call or argument
How can I strip out these special chars yet keep the html etc. before the writeline I saw a few ~ and box chars that I stripped out of the source xml, I got further but now am stuck again. I cant seem to find this special character, perhaps invisible?
How can I get a string to be written to a text file in a loop with each new string being written on a new line? I assumed that the code below would do just that but it doesn't work.
Set fileCSV = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set textCSV = fileCSV.CreateTextFile(pathTotextCSV, True)
for i = 1 to 10
myString = "hello world"&i
textCSV.WriteLine(fsoString)
next
textCSV.Close
Why does this just create one long line?
How can I write a line (with carriage return + line feed) to the client ?
response.write("abcd"), continue the last line, and doesn't put cr+lf.
response.writeLn is illegal syntax...
I'd like to write lines to a file, but it always adds an extra line (I assume it's because of the crlf). Is there a way I can add lines without the auto crlf, so that I add the last line and not the crlf?

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
View Replies View RelatedI'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.

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.
I have this simple Select:
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 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'm trying to produce an image with a javascript link. The problem seems to
be with the single quote. Here is the code that I wrote:
response.Write("<a href='javascript:PopUp('http://www.yahoo.com')'><img src='image1.jpg' width='50' height='67'></a>")
When I preview the page and roll over the image, the link is truncated to just javascript:PopUp( .
I've tried creating the link with a string like below.
strLink = "javascript:PopUp(" & " ' " & "http://www.yahoo.com" & " ' " & ")"
The string displayed properly when printed on screen, but when I tried to use it as the link it truncated again. I'm not real sure what to try next.
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.
