Hi cftalk:
We are running CF8.
I am seeing a strange application error ScriptProtect error replacing insecure
tag in scope CGI. The error occurred on line -1..
Strangely, there are very few google references to this error, and absolutely
no explanations / solutions that I can find.
We
However, we get this ScriptProtect error if we pass in the URL:
http://www.SERVER.com/search.cfm?querystring=javascript:alert%28412898284482%29
Clearly this has nothing to do with the CGI scope, so I'm a little confused
at why an error is being thrown.
It does, in fact, have something to
This wouldn't match anchor tags with upper case,
but could be changed like so:
/?[a|A][^]*
You've got two syntaxes mixed up there.
(?:a|A) or [aA] is what you want - no bar needed for square brackets.
And I think it might be best to use a lazy match:
/?[a|A][^]+
That's not a lazy
Good call on the parens. I had those in the original since I had ripped
from code that did use the /1 element later on. Also, you could use
#reReplaceNoCase()# as an alternative to [aA] ... but I like the [aA]
better, for no particular reason.

Subject: RE: Replacing characters in a string
Data is cut-pasted from Word (I think), then inputted via form text area to
database. When outputting data, some characters such as apostrophies and dashes
display as little squares. I need to fix this somehow. First thought is to
replace the characters on output, but I don't even know what
cflib has a function called demoronize. some rich text editors have a
special paste from Word button that attempt to clean up the smart quotes
and other crappy MS characters.
however, it's been my experience that neither these (nor any other automated
method that I've heard of) is bulletproof.
Thanks Charlie,
I just tried DeMoronize, and it did not even touch it. Worth a try though. I
wish there was something effective. I get people cutting-pasting from Word,
Publisher, all sorts of programs always with problems. I always suggest pasting
in MS Notepad first to clean it up, but the

hi guys,
i have some text as follows...
bulletblah blah/bullet

bulletblah blah/bullet
bulletblah blah/bullet
i need to insert this into a text field using proper html eg. ulli for the

the last
Simple and hackish is to just reverse the string, replace tellub/
with lu/il/, and then reverse the string again. If you know the
final /bullet is at the end of the string, you could use
/bullet$ in REReplace.
