Escape , in javascript

[sandy1028]

Hi,

 

Suppose two values are appended with ;

i.e

 

for example

This is a function

 

function append(){

filter('alerts', document.getElementById('view_alert').value + ";" + document.getElementById('id').value);

}

 

and if document.getElementById('id').value has a "," in it. Does it ignores the string after ",".

 

 

<form onSubmit="append(); return false;">

 

the value after submitting the form the

document.getElementById('id').value doesnot contain string after comma.

and if document.getElementById('id').value has a "," in it. Does it ignores the string after ",".

Is that the question?

No, javascript doesn't magically start ignoring the rest of a string once it finds a comma.

Your alert should show all of the text in both view_alert and id with a ';' in the middle.

 

And please use
