John, I believe you goofed here.the char wrapped in [URL] will produce '%22', NOT '"'Plus another reason (I believe) that you may have misled anyone reading this thread is that when [url]ing strings as they get appended to a db via webcat it does convert the works to hexideciaml equivilent unless you use 2 [url] wrappers. Webcat [unurl]s just before actually appending. The first [url] is good to prevent the & char from breaking the append or replace context, but then webcat has the courtesy to convert the string back into what was intended to get into the db.right?-JohnJohn Peacock wrote:> 1) Don't store the inch symbol () in the database.
