How about a Server.URL'DE'Code

Karl Blessing · Jul 24, 2000

right now, I am having a problem with the form submited to me, originaly I had it check the variables for a _ , and = and so forth, but for some reason now, I cannot do Instr with "¦" even tho I know its there, it does work if I use the encoded ¦ , which is "%7C" how do I get all the strings to return to normal in my new ASP the form was submited to. ' FormStr has 1 fields, "Variable=Value" from the Form Posting ' FormStr = Split(Request.Form, "&&quot

ReDim FrmCol(UBound(FormStr),2) 'FormCol now has 2 feilds "Variable", "Value" ' for i = LBound(FrmCol) to UBound(FrmCol)   TmpAry = Split(FormStr(i),"=&quot

FrmCol(i,0) = TmpAry(0)   FrmCol(i,1) = TmpAry(1) next ' Number = 0 for j = LBound(FrmCol) to UBound(FrmCol)   rt = Instr(1, FrmCol(j,0), "¦&quot

-1 '"%7C" works, "¦" doesnt   'Response.Write "rt: " & rt & "(" & FrmCol(j,0) & "} " & vbcrlf   if rt > 0 then     if IsNumeric(Left(FrmCol(j,0), rt)) then       Number = Number + 1       Response.Write FrmCol(j,0) & " {" & FrmCol(j,1) & "} " & vbcrlf     end if   else     if IsNumeric(FrmCol(j,0)) then       Number = Number + 1       Response.Write FrmCol(j,0) & " " & vbcrlf     end if   end if next Response.Write Number Response.End there is more, but I am just debuging it now, to accept my new namming convention.

1.In following line, what is this -1? rt = Instr(1, FrmCol(j,0), "¦&quot

-1 2.Here's very simple piece of code which worked(just for testing purposes): <HTML> <HEAD> <META NAME="GENERATOR" Content="Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0"> <TITLE></TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <%dim inp   inp = instr(1,request("charac&quot

,"¦&quot

Response.Write inp %> <form name="pipe" action="" method="post">  <input type="textbox" name="charac">  <input type="submit"> </form> </BODY> </HTML> Of course, when you first load the page it'll give you inp = 0

Karl Blessing · Jul 24, 2000

I want the Number before the ¦, which is why the -1 is there, to be the length (considering everything is comming from position 0) also the Form variable passed isnt going to be just a "Charac" which is why I load the whole thing into an array, it's being decoded for processing, you'd have to see the page it came from to understand what I mean, but the question is simple, how do I allow instr to find a "¦" inside of a URLEncoded form values?, also is URLEncode required for Forms, I know it's required at the bottom of this page, because I append the new data on the end of the URL string.

I found out I dont even use URLEncode on the page it came from, the submision must have done that. Karl <a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a> <a href=

Here's another piece of code, which works: <HEAD> <TITLE></TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <%dim strURL,strDeURL   strURL = server.URLEncode("pipe.asp?pipe=asd¦fasd&quot

if instr(1,strURL,"%7C&quot

<> 0 then   strDeURL = replace(strURL,"%7C","¦&quot

Response.Write strURL & " " & strDeURL  else   Response.Write "No pipes were found"  end if   %> </BODY> </HTML> Of course, I don't know the whole task you have to accomplish, but the function Instr() works good when you look either for "%7C" or "¦"

Karl Blessing · Jul 24, 2000

um, isnt that what I already do, I want to just look for "¦" not have to look for it's encoded version, if I Cant just see "¦" when I get it from the form, otherwise, I'll just need to find the "%7C". Karl <a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a> <a href=

also its annoying because if I try to spit it out to the screen, it shows up in it's encoded mode, does this mean if I had a text box, and I typed in yo¦yo when printing it back out, it'll be a "yo%7Cyo"  and I didnt even use any URLEncode on my site that submits the form data.

Dear Karl, If your server is running v5.5 of the scripting engine you could proxy the JScript functions that handle decoding into your VBScript. <%@ language=vbscript %> <script language=javascript runat=server> function vb_decodeStr( instr){   return decodeURIComponent( instr); } </script> <% 'this is now vbscript since it is a page block dim strURL,strDeURL strURL = server.URLEncode("pipe.asp?pipe=asd¦fasd&quot

strDeURL = vb_decodeStr( strUrl) %> Good luck -pete

Karl Blessing · Jul 24, 2000

I could just use that Javascript, and just run it around the Request.Form right, since it's like a big string? Karl <a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a> <a href=

Dear Karl, That's probably what you get when you are running a version of the scripting engine that does not support the function. Did you check your version? ScriptEngineMajorVersion() ScriptEngineMinorVersion() Good luck -pete

Check the spelling: you could have misspelled name of the function when you called it
