VS 2010 Automatically Converts Apostrophe To Unicode
Jan 13, 2011
I have created a DLL to run javascript. I am trying to pass string value (for javascript) " 'Navy' " to ASPX page from .cs file. On ASPX page this value gets translated to " 'Navy' ". I was wondering why there is an automatic conversion. I want to see the result as "Navy". Here is code:
I am working on an ASP.NET project where we are updating all of our websites to support Unicode values. In one place, we are allowing users to enter their email address as Unicode. I use the following code snippet to display the "mailto" address hyperlink:
When I click on this link, it opens Outlook, but the email address displays as garbage text. Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?From what I have heard, currently, email addresses only support ANSII characters, but Unicode characters are coming; That is why we are taking this step.
When using a simple gridview targeting .net 4.0 if i click the edit button twice it converts to BoundFields to textboxes, but in previous version of .net (3.5 and 2.0) nothing happens (eventhough msdn says it suppose to happen). Have anyone seen this issue?
Code: <asp:GridView ID="GridView1" AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataKeyNames="Id" runat="server" onrowediting="GridView1_RowEditing"> <Columns> <asp:BoundField DataField="Id" HeaderText="ID" Visible="False" /> <asp:BoundField DataField="FirstName" HeaderText="First Name" /> <asp:BoundField DataField="LastName" HeaderText="Last Name" /> <asp:TemplateField> <ItemTemplate> <asp:ImageButton ID="imageButton" AlternateText="Edit" CausesValidation="false" CommandName="Edit" runat="server" /> </ItemTemplate> </asp:TemplateField> </Columns> </asp:GridView> public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page { public class Person { public string FirstName { get; set; } public string LastName { get; set; }
Does anyone know why VS2010 will automatically put an open and close html paragraph tag in my markup everytime I click on save, or save all? It is really obnoxious. I have to close the document and click yes at the prompt to save in order to save my document. If I click save, or save all, it will always place a paragraph tag somewhere in the code and therefore it will need to be saved again.
I have a few procs which use a datareader as illustrated below:
[Code]....
In the real scenario there are many more fields than the 2 in the example so each time I make a change to BaseClasses.Subscription I have to change code throughout. I already have a method which converts a datarow to BaseClasses.Subscription which I call like this:
public BaseClasses.Subscription RowToSubscription(dr)
It would be great if I could do it with the datareader too, something like this:
I've been having an occasional issue with my website "converting" to site that requires windows authentication. This happens every few months and the only way to fix it to recycle the application pool.This issue is actually happening with a hosting company and my site is on a shared server. I believe I have my own application pool and I'm able to recycle it myself using their web administration tools. Fortunately, I know how to fix and have the ability to do it myself but it is embarrassing when my site now longer works and I have a client email there is a problem. I'm running .NET 3.5 with latest SP.
I have a java function(on the unkeyup handler) that converts to uppercase and another that is linked to my Custom Validator and which validates one of my textboxes, this work perfect with Firefox,chrome,Opera and Safari but with internet explorer is only working the ServerValidation that is, I have to click submit for the textbox to be validated.
I reading a string. That string is Name like Johnny. If this "Johnny" contains comma, hyphen or apostrophe, I have to throw a error. I m able to read, if that string has numeric data. but I m unable to read this
Say i have a TextBox control inside of a ListView where the text is DataBound and I want to use TrimStart. What is the proper way to define the char parameters? When I enter an apostrophe I get a server tag not well formed error... Example below:
Have an issue with the HTML editor. Whenever somebody uses an apostophe ( ' ) in the editor and then clicks save (which will send an update to the database) it is taking the apostrophe as part of my command line and it is returning an error. I used a replace to change the apostophe into an encoded html tag but then it was changing it for all the <div> and <span> created by the editor which was causing none of the code to work. how I can encode the apostrophe without encoding the code? Here's my code:
I have spent quite a bit of time researching this here on Asp.Net's Forums, but also on the web in general, and I am still drawing a blank.
The problem: I am trying pass a values such as ... "Jacob's Carpentry" as a query string to another page. However, the other pages keeps seeing "Jacob\s Carpentry".
What I have tried: I have tried using both the Server.UrlEncode and HttpUtility.UrlEncode, and neither have worked. I have also tried using them twice as was suggested in this article, but still with no luck. Finally, I went so far as to try and encode the string, but then do a String.Replace on the " ' " apostrophe and substitute with a "%27". This also did not work, as it appeared that the String.Replace wiped out the encoding.
So I am stuck/lost. It appears the standard PHP functions easily encode the apostrophe, but for some reason the .Net function isn't working.
Here is the code I am using ...
[Code]....
I notice, however, then if I put a breakpoint where the PostBackUrl is set, the encoded string is still only showing "Jacob's+Carpentry", no %27.
So I have a Hyperlink called lnkTwitter:And I'm trying to set the url in the code behind:lnkTwitter.NavigateUrl = string.Format("http://www.twitter.com/home?status={0}", Server.UrlEncode("I'm Steven"));When I do that and hover over the link, the url displays correctly in the status bar as "http://www.twitter.com/home?status=I'm+Steven", but the actual url, if I click on the link or look at the link's properties, is "http://www.twitter.com/home?status=I%27m+Steven".For some reason, this only happens in Firefox; in IE, I am taken to the correct url.
I followed an example on how to create a simple web service that converts celsius to fahrenheit. It seems to work alright. After the conversion it outputs the new value in xml. What do you do with the value that's in xml? Do you use an Xmlreader to read it from the xml, or what is usually done after the value is generated in xml?
In my XML, it's possible for an apostrophe to appear in a node's value:
[Code]....
If I have controls bound to this XML:
[Code]....
I've noticed that the text is correctly displayed in the asp:TextBox but not in the INPUT element. I'm assuming that it's because server controls correctly escape the apostrophe. To work around this, I tried changing the Description node in the XML to the following:
[Code]....
Again, this displayed correctly in the asp:TextBox, but not in the INPUT element.
My next attempt was to wrap the node's value in a CDATA:
[Code]....
Finally it was displaying correctly in the INPUT element, but now the asp:TextBox displayed the two "& # 3 9 ;". I've even tried "& a p o s ;" but the result is the same.
I'm calling a webservice using jQuery with .ajaxHere are the data parameters for the call:
var parameters = "{'Titre':'" + Titre + "','Description':'" + Description + "','Contact':'" + Contact + "','VilleId':'" + VilleId + "','QuartierId':'" + QuartierId + "','UserId':'" + UserId + "'}"; It works fine. But when parameters Description or Titre contain the ' character , no call!!!
Does anyone have an idea how can i make it work even with apostrophe character in Titre and/or Description?
Im unable to enter apostrophe(') in the textbox as got error message as per below . How to solve this ? Pls help .thanks

which doesn't work because of the final apostrophe in the notation i.e. %>' It truncates after the word e.g O'Neil Someone becomes O' which is incorrect.
This works like a charm: value='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Name").ToString().Replace("'", "'")%>' which isn't good practice as I don't want to hardcode '
So I found an example on how to search gridview using filterexpressions on this site (Filter GridView with TextBox using FilterExpression in SqlDataSource in ASP.Net), but now if I try to search with an apostrophe in the textbox, the code fails.

need information regarding how to use Unicode characters in ASP.NET in SDK and what are the data types to be used in it. I have come accross this concept for the first time..All I know id basically we want support for all languages that's why we have opted for Unicode support.
I have a form to insert University major relation to uniBol table. TextBox3 takes University names and Textbox2 Takes majors. unibol contains uniID(university ID) and bolID (major ID). When I enter something on the textboxes containing unicode it doesn't return any ID. How should I go for it to work properly?
