hey sam,
thats cool and makes sense. i've been searching and found this: http://www.basic-ultradev.com/articles/SBBArticle1/index.asp it outlines something very similar to what i'm trying to do. this bits of code come from that page - this bit takes a single quote and then turns it into a double quote theSelection = theSelection.replace(/\"/g,'""'); - this bit ads the line ending theSelection = theSelection.replace(/\r\n/g,'") & vbcrlf \r\n Response.Write("'); - and this bit adds to the front of the line theSelection = 'Response.Write("' + theSelection + '") & vbcrlf'; his example was to change this: <table> ��<tr> ����<td bgcolor="#FF6699">Hello</td> ����<td bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><img src="smiley.gif"></td> ��</tr> </table> into this: Response.Write("<table>") & vbcrlf Response.Write(" ��<tr>") & vbcrlf Response.Write(" ����<td bgcolor=""#FF6699"">Hello</td>") & vbcrlf Response.Write(" ����<td bgcolor=""#FFFFFF""><img src=""smiley.gif""></td>") & vbcrlf Response.Write(" ��</tr>") & vbcrlf Response.Write("</table>") & vbcrlf which is eventually, virtually what i'm trying to do!! thing is, he's written the article around making a dw server behavior.... trying to amend the code now - what do we think?? cheers, jake On Wednesday, September 25, 2002, at 02:39 PM, Sam Thompson wrote: > i know how you feel mate! > > In the HTML, have standard placeholders, like whereever you want the > name to > appear, put $NAME and for the message put $MESSAGE > > This HTML is then pasted into a textarea by your user, and submitted to > your > ASP page.
