Subject: Need to prevent javascript from being submitted in form


> I have a form with a number of text and textarea fields. Information
> submitted is then written to a SQL Server Database. I want to prevent users
> from typing in potentially malicious javascript in any of these fields.
>
> One option is to loop through all the submitted form variables before
> writing to the database and disable the script declaration by removing the
> anchor brackets.
>
> <cfloop list="my form fields">
>
> <cfset form.fieldx=rereplacenocase(form.fieldx,"<","","ALL")>
> <cfset form.fieldx=rereplacenocase(form.fieldx,">","","ALL")>
>
> </cfloop>
>
> This is fairly tedious and needs to be repeated for a number of forms. Is
> there a more efficient way of preventing javascript from being submitted /
> written to database in any of the forms across the entire site ?
