I need to cut out illegal characters in a string submitted from a mobile
phone to a web form. I need a way to check for the illegal characters in a
textbox. I intend to loop through the text and remove the illegal characters.
Is there an equivalent function to c# to chr() in Visual basic? I want the
decimal value of a character, like "A" is 65 in ACII2. If there is a
equilvalent command does it return ACII2 or unicode?
I know there is a chr command in c# but it dosen't do the same thing. 5 3831
(int)'A' will give you 65
so
char temp = 'A';
(int) temp
or
(int)stringVar[x]

There's no "chr" command (or any commands) in C#. However, you can just
use the unicode value:
int x = 'A'; // x will now be 65

C# equivalents of VB functions:
int Asc(char ch)
{
//Return the character value of the given character
return (int)Encoding.A SCII.GetBytes(S )[0];
}
Char Chr(int i)
{
//Return the character of the given character value
return Convert.ToChar( i);
}
There are also some nice builtin methods for string handling in c# such as
Replace(), Split() and Remove().
See docs for more details.
ok,

In addition to the other answers, you can use regular expressions to
remove the illegal characters.

I would suggest you to use Char class'es static methods like Char.IsLetter()
or Char.IsLetterOr Digit() as they take in account the language support. For
example if you run your application in US 'ä' would be an illegal character
but in Denmark it will be OK. Char methods take care of it you you.

For example, a user enters something into a text box and clicks OK.
At that point I'd like to run code such as this:

If Me.TextBox Contains illegal Then

I have a textbox named "txtName" and a button (btnSave) on a webform.
After I have typed the illegal characters into the textbox and click "Save", I would like the webform to check for those characters and display a message, "Illegal Characters not allowed". How do I achieve that in JavaScript?
Sorry if it seems too simple as I am kinda weak in programming.
Thanks.
