double quotes issue in request object

[vivi74]

Hello All,

I am having an issue with double quotes in a string, where in the
request object has the garbled string, but the form element has the
correct value. For e.g here is what i have

<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="element_name" VALUE=""ABCD "EFG" HIJK,
LMN"" SIZE=40 MAXLENGTH=60>

the form element value --> "ABCD "EFG" HIJK, LMN" which is correct

however for some reason the request object has this value

request object --> ?ABCD ?EFG? HIJK, LMN?

is there any way i could escape this quotes, also these values are
dynamically loaded into the form.

appreciate any help

Thanks in advance

Hi,

<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="element_name" VALUE=""ABCD "EFG" HIJK,
LMN"" SIZE=40 MAXLENGTH=60>

you need to use the &quot; entity within the attribute.

Also i recomment using a valid html syntax of the level ((X)HTML
transitional/strict etc.) of your choice.

The issue is a user enters double quotes and it almost seems like the ?
mark is some character. I tried to user stringtokenziser with a actual
? mark and the string would not tokenize. I guess its a characterset
issue, not sure tho. Am i missing something.
