In the spirit of things shouldn't the line
$escaped:=Char(Double quote)+$escaped+Char(Double quote)
be replaced with
$escaped:="\""+$escaped+"\""
* * * * * * * * * *
But more seriously:
If I pass the as the parameter "dog \on hill" what do I
expect the output of the method to be?
C_TEXT($someText)
$someText:=DavidEscapeMethod("dog \on hill")
Alert($someText)
What is and what should be $someText?
I am one of those people who find escaping confusing.
