I am building a dB interface where people will enter free-form information,
and would like to facilitate the the possiblity that someone might enter an
apostrophe.
Since a apostrophe (') is used to enclose string values within an SQL
statement, when building SQL statements within JSP, it will be necessary to
go through and replace these apostrophes with the character escape value - a
double tic ('').
PROBLEM:
Though I have found a replace method for the String class, it apparently
only replaces characters, not substrings and so I would only be able to
replace the tic with a single other character ... or so I believe.
I am hoping that there is something I am missing and there is a method that
will allow me to replace the (') single tics with ('') double tics, and vice
versa. Does anyone know of anything?
Thanks!
Neal
