I have the following javascript in the view:
var id = $('#CurrentCartId').text();
var description = $(this).text();
var url='{{=URL('cart','description')}}';
url += '/' + id + '/';
url += description;
ajax(url,[],':eval');
the reason I use url+= to pass parameters instead of using args in the URL
helper is because the parameters are coming from the html itself - they are
not known in the controller py.
now the problem is that it changes the description and I have no way to
recover its original value. for example, when description is "askjdf d
dka;lskdj 3838&^&%$#@ ((alksjdf__ - ))" (just a randomly typed string in
this case), it comes out as "askjdf_d___dka_lskdj__3838_____". Obviously,
it needs to do this conversion in order to pass the parameter, but I need
to be able to recreate the original string, entered by the user.
Is there a better way of doing this? I.e. a better way of passing a
parameter in a way that it could be "recreated" and stored in the database
exactly as typed by the user?
