I have a problem in my asp.net 3.5 application (C#) when I try to render in my pages characters like 'è' which are shown in a very strange manner (if i'm lucky i get a ? mark in my web page). in fact Expression Web, when i open my web site, substitutes the è char with �...How can I tell asp.net that I want to use a particular charset so that i can write in the html source letters like è without using hexadecimal codes??????I tried in the web.config this:inside the system.web namespace of the file but nothing works...
For some reason the encoding on my website has gone wrong. Turkish characters that were working before are now coming out in '?'. I have not touched anything. Our regular developer is away so I'm not sure if he touched anything. The text has been working on this page till recently and on the previous years page. That has now been affected to. I have set the following statement in the <head> section:
< meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> Unicode UTF-8 has worked in the past.
When I view the encoding in Internet Explorer 8 tools menu it is saying 'Western European(ISO)'. In my test environment, encoding is showing up as Unicode UTF-8 and hence the code is correct. So my question is, why is the encoding change to Western European (ISO) and how can I change?
I'm storing some html-encoded data in a sql server database and I've written a script to output the data in a csv format minus the html tags and I'm getting a weird issue when html-decoding the remaining data. For example the data contains a quote character (which is html-encoded as ’), but when I try to html-decode it the data comes out as a series of weird characters (’). Does anyone know how to solve this issue? The output encoding of the page is UTF-8 if that helps.
I am doing some url redirections in a project that I am currently working on. I am new to web development and was wondering what the best practise was to remove any illegal path characters, such as ' ? etc.I'm hoping I don't have to resort to manually replacing each character with their encoded urls.I have tried UrlEncode and HTMLEncode, but UrlEncode doesn't cater for the ? and HTMLEncode doesn't cater for 'E.G. If I was to use the following:
Dim name As String = "Dave's gone, why?" Dim url As String = String.Format("~/books/{0}/{1}/default.aspx", bookID, name) Response.Redirect(url)
I've tried wrapping url like this:Dim encodedUrl As String = Server.UrlEncode(url)AndDim encodedUrl As String = Server.HTMLEncode(url)
I have a URL which is in a ASP.NET repeater control:[URL]This gets encoded to & when it gets rendered to the browser.We have tried decoding it using server side tags in the repeater, that did not work.How can i stop this from happening?[URL]
I have a string that came from an old database of unknown character encoding. I am having trouble encoding/filtering the string to show the correct text.What the data looks like in the database: Marronnière à quatre pansWhat we need the string to show up as: Marronnière à quatre pansSpecifically, I am having trouble parsing the string so I can display the character à (à)This is an asp.Net 2.0 site written in VB using a Sql Server 2005 Database. Not sure if it matters, but data comes from a column with this collation: SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_ASI've tried encoding the string to various encodings in the code to no avail. I've also passed the string (encoded different ways) into a byte array to find a unique byte pattern for the bad characters without success.
I have an ASP.NET web application and at a certain point I do this:mycontrol.stringparameterforjscript = "document.getElementById('" + myotherparam + "').value = 'Hello'";The problem is that this thing does not work.s you can see this sets a javascript in some event of some tag. Well when the page is redered the problem is that my parameter look like this:
I have written a web mailer that can send and receive emails and display them on a webpage.I have a problem displaying special characters though. Like Russian, and Greek and chinese.I am using openpop.net and I can get the encoding of the incoming email as one of my variables.Thing is, how do I display it? Do I set the content encoding of the whole page to what that specific email encoding is?I've got it UTF-8 at the moment and I get garbage.
Im pulling out a text field from the database which has and 's in it for line breaks. Which I have left there for pupose of being able to edit the fields later on.
So when i try to display the text I need to replace them which I have done with:
[Code]....
Simple enough. Only when I run the page the source code I get for it is:
<br />
So it seems its not encoding the < as a encode but into the form <
Does anyone know how to stop this happen. Or a method around it?
I am using .NET Page Routing (not MVC) to get pretty URLs (or at least removing the file extensions) on my site.On my search page, when a user searches for "stuff" it redirects then to /search/stuff for the results. However when I put in something like "stuff yes:" it gives me a HTTP 400 Bad Request Error.
I tried using javascript to encode the search value before being submitted, and confirmed that "stuff yes:" was converted to "staff%20yes%3A", yet when it performs the routing redirect, in the URL it shows "staff%20yes:" and causes the bad request. Why is it not saving the encoding for the typically illegal characters and how can I make it so?
I need to encode querystring from the aspx itself, like we do <%Eval()%>.Below is my html
<asp:HyperLinkField HeaderText="Your Header" DataNavigateUrlFields="userId" DataTextField="Your Data Field to Display" HeaderStyle-HorizontalAlign="Center" DataNavigateUrlFormatString="mypage.aspx?type=2&userId={0}" ItemStyle-Width="35%" ItemStyle-HorizontalAlign="Left" />
Here i want to encrypt or simply encode the parameters type and userid so that it will look like encrypted.
My issue is that , need to change the column name(following format "Remove first character and after 3rd character insert colon") of the gridview (which is binded with XMLTextReader). Without changing directly XML file, Required to change the column name dynamically at runtime .
I looked up the msdn documentation and it says that InvalidUserName is thrown when it does not find the username in the database, which is fine because the user I am creating should not exist in the database. If I use test@example.com, it works, but if I try it with test.@example.com, the status from Membership.CreateUser is InvalidUserName.
I have a legacy MySQL database which stores the user passwords & salts for a membership system. Both of these values have been hashed using the Ruby framework - roughly like this:
So both values are stored as 40-character strings (varchar(40)) in MySQL. Now I need to import all of these users into the ASP.NET membership framework for a new web site, which uses a SQL Server database. It is my understanding that the the way I have ASP.NET membership configured, the user passwords and salts are also stored in the membership database (in table aspnet_Membership) as SHA1 hashes, which are then Base64 encoded (see here for details) and stored as nvarchar(128) data.
But from the length of the Base64 encoded strings that are stored (28 characters) it seems that the SHA1 hashes that ASP.NET membership generates are only 20 characters long, rather than 40. From some other reading I have been doing I am thinking this has to do with the number of bits per character/character set/encoding or something related.
So is there some way to convert the 40-character SHA1 hashes to 20-character hashes which I can then transfer to the new ASP.NET membership data table? I'm pretty familiar with ASP.NET membership by now but I feel like I'm just missing this one piece. However, it may also be known that SHA1 in Ruby and SHA1 in .NET are incompatible, so I'm fighting a losing battle.
I want to read a line character by character, in the sense I want to read each and every character on the line. can I can make that line as a string. breaking string into substrings ? if possiblw how.? I m unable to start. can anyone give the code.
I have designed a page where user can write messages and send within a group but i want that if they enter any special character like <>?#@ etc a msg should be displayed irrespective of the crashing of the page.
I have created a backend that allows me to update my site content. I am using fckeditor to pull the data from my table in the database. The problem I am having is this: i need to create paging of content so that when the height restriction is met a next btn or numbering system displays to allow the user to click to the next page of content.
I am using AJAX Toolkit's Calendar extender control.
When the control is rendered on page, the day names are 2 character long and shown as "Su", "Mo", "Tu", "We", "Th", "Fr" and "Sa".
Instead, I want it to be rendered as 3 character long format as "Sun", "Mon", "Tue", "Wed", "Thu", "Fri" and "Sat". note that I further need to localize this application too. So, I probably need some setting that could do the magic instead of overwriting on some server side event to achieve it.
There is probably some settings that I am not aware of.
The code for localizing the Calendar extender is as follows (in case if you need to test).
I have a url that I would like to put into my web.config file. http://google.com?parcel&bob&&smithI imagine that the .net run time is upset with the ampersand's so i encoded them to be&.http://google.com?rcel&bob&&smithThis also doesn't work. Any ideas would be great, if you could supply a link to the documentation of why this is that would be even better.
I am using ASP.NET 4 c# 2010.Well my website has some problem with character encoding.It seems that when I generate my output it is htmlencoded. So a ' is encoded with #number;... this is not always a good thing because when I need to dynamically insert jscript in my controls, every ' or " are encoded and js doesn't work properly...
How to correctly tell ASP.NET not to encode? or better telling him that he must correctly manage ' " and other chars like these withput rendering them htmlencoded?
An example of string being output: this.MyControl.Attributes["onfocus"] = "execJs('param')"
Can someone lead me to understanding when to set the encoding for the email step when sending new member emails. For instance what is the default or how can I tell what it is or if I want to set it in the SendMail event in code. See the thing I am wondering is when is it applied? If I set the MailDefinition-From in the html part then in code using the SendMail event set the encoding using
e.Message.From = new MailAddress("foo@bar.com","foo",System.Text.Encoding.UTF8);
then I assume that it must actually get applied when the email is sent. Is that correct?
