Disabling special character sequences

Is there any means of running MySQL (3.23, mostly MyISAM tables running on
Win2k Server) so that escaped character sequences (those preceded by a
backslash \) are _not_ interpretted as anything other than literals? We're
trying to port a large number of web applications that previously used MS SQL
and Access to use MySQL Server and this has been a big headache so far - even
just in migrating the data from one to the other.

Thanks,
Jim

I'm worried about idiot users that write long essays in Microsoft Word, then log into their accounts and bring up an HTML form and copy and paste the essay and hit submit. Or perhaps they do this using WordPerfect. Or perhaps they use MacWrite. I output everything from my site as UTF-8. I'd like to check the input for characters that are not UTF-8 and then turn the bad ones to an ASCII question mark. I could loop through a string as if...

Hi, Is it possible to use special characters like \n or \t in a VB.NET string, just like in C#? My guess is NO, but maybe there's something I don't know. If it's not possible, does anybody know of a VB.NET function (somebody must have coded this already) that will interpret strings containings those special characters, and handle them the same as in C#?

I am having a problem with the "escape" character \e. This code is in my Windows form KeyPress event. The compiler gives me "unrecognized escape sequence" even though this is documented in MSDN. Any idea if this is a bug? if (e.KeyChar == '\e') { this.Close(); }

Hello, I was wondering what is the correct way to handle special characters via javascript and the DOM. I would like to avoid document.write and innerHTML. What I am doing is dynamically creating options for a select. The innerHTML example below works for firefox and internet explorer, but is this the accepted way of dynamically adding special characters. option = document.createElement("OPTION");

Hi everybody, I am new to Python, I try to understand how Python treats special characters. For example, if I execute the following line in a shell console, I obtain a colored string: $ python -c "print '\033 ColorReset = os.environ Esc = os.environ print '%s%s%s%s%s' % (Esc, Color, " foo ", Esc, ColorReset)

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
