try: <a href="setquotedefaults.cfm?quotefrom=#urlencodedformat(quotefrom)#">
-----Original Message----- From: Nancy Elberty [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 22 July 2005 17:49 To: CF-Talk Subject: Passing Values containing Special Characters I am a novice, self-taught CF programmer and am sure that there is an easy solution to my problem ....but I haven't had any luck yet. In an application I have developed I use CFFORM to collect input from users. I am using <INPUT type="text" name="QuoteFrom"> to get the input. I display it back by changing the type to "hidden" and ask the user to verify. Then I add the data to SQL. This part all works. After I do a CFQUERY to add the data, I want to go to another program and pass a couple of the fields. I use <a href="setquotedefaults.cfm?quotefrom=#quotefrom#">Quote creation successful. Click here to continue</a> Now, the problem that I have is if the user entry contains any special characters like & or " setquotedefaults.cfm only reads up to the special character and truncates the rest. I have checked the program that is passing the info and the bottom gray bar on my IE browser shows the correct path, program and values. I have also checked my SQL tables and the data was added properly (Text with the special characters). What do I need to do to stop the truncating? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
