Response Object and HTML Encoding

The response object is often used in conjunction with various kinds of coding schemes. No discussion of response would be complete without a discussion of how to "handle" or "escape" special characters. This sample script demonstrates common conversion and transformation commands that make sense to use with the response.write command:

   filename=/learn/test/res5.asp

<Test Script Below>


<html><head>
<title>res5.asp</title>
</head><body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<%
' The response object can be used to write text 
' but sometimes some functions must be used to transform
' the text instead of sending as is to the browser

response.write "<B>Hyperion</b> by <I>Dan Simmons</i> is a great novel"
response.write "<p>"
response.write server.htmlencode("<B>Hyperion</b> by <I>Dan Simmons</i> is a great novel")
response.write "<p>"


response.write "Joe Smith & Hilda = a team"
response.write "<p>"
response.write server.URLencode("Joe Smith & Hilda = a team")
%>

</body></html>

There are many worthy charities!!. But perhaps help starving children in Africa or South America AND help Charles too. a $5 tip buys him lunch at McDonalds, a $20 tip buys his kid Hitoshi a new computer game, a $39 tip buys his daughter Michiko a few nice outfits. See our donor list.
