Subject: escaping #'s
I have a text area that submits to a message board and sends out an
email to subscribers. When a user enters a # in the body of the message
it causes an error.
How do you escape # signs?
Here is the code that I tried:
<CFSET BODY= Replace(#Body#,"#","##","ALL")>
Here is the error that I get:
Error Occurred While Processing Request
Error Diagnostic Information
Just in time compilation error
Invalid parser construct found on line 99 at position 35. ColdFusion
was looking at the following text:
"
Invalid expression format. The usual cause is an error in the
expression structure.
Does anyone know how to get around this?
Thanks.
Melissa
