Hello All,
I have an input tag that I am populating with data from a database.
My problem is the following:
The data in the database that contains single and double quotes.
What do I do?
Currently, I've tried the following...
input type=text name=collName value='Be'er Shmuel Talmudical Academy'
size=35 maxlength=35
But the above code only displays "Be"
I've tried...
input type=text name=collName value="Be'er Shmuel Talmudical Academy"
size=35 maxlength=35
But that works okay for single quotes, but for double quotes I have
the same problem...
How do I fix this? Should I just stick with double quotes and then is
it possible to escape the double quotes that are in the field?
Thanks!

Replace ' with ' and " with ", and escape the & instead when
processing the data. A little simpler exercise than escaping all the
characters you can't use in a script.

Depends on the scripting language and your database. It is probably
possible. You'd get more useful help by asking how to do this in a
group dedicated to the particular language you use. If it's PHP,
perhaps this will help: http://us3.php.net/htmlentities
(aside: why do the php folks insist on several different domains that
hold the same info? I seem to get redirected to a us3 or de subdomain
depending on I don't know what. The phase of the moon?)

Place all the values in double quotes. Convert all double quotes within
the text to """:
<input type="text" name="collName"
value="Be'er Shmuel Talmudical Academy is "Great!&qu ot;"
size="35" maxlength="35">

You certainly don't need multiple urls to accomplish that!

Use charater entities for such situations, e.g.,
'
´
&dquote;
input type=text name=collName value='Be'er Shmuel Talmudical
Academy' size=35 maxlength=35

Hello,
I am aware that a lot of people are wary of using scanf,
because doing it improperly can be dangerous. I have

of scanf() but been unsuccessful.
Is there a well-respected (by the c.l.c crowd) book
or tutorial that really covers scanf in detail?

I have a piece of code that uses hashtables to store pointers to

It is eleven to ten.
It is half past nine.
It is a quarter past eight.
It is a quarter to ten.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
