UltraKnorrie Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 Hello,yes this has already been posted and answered in parts, but so far, I always failed to get the whole picture right.What's the problem ? Well I've to store, edit and display french texts in a MySQL-database and on a website.Such french texts contains lots of characters with accents (HTML-codes: ê è ....) and more of that nice stuff, and contain also single and double quotes (and sometimes ampersands too ;-)So, my website runs PhP; getting the code right to store it in MySQL is no problem, I'm using the function "qesc()" to format the code for proper storing in MySQL: function qesc($value) { if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) $value = stripslashes($value); // Quote if not integer if (!is_numeric($value)) $value = mysql_real_escape_string($value); return $value;}But retrieved data must be both being displayed on a website and using popups which are made using javascript and which contain html-formatting tags....And here I fail to get it working.What have I done exactly: I "escaped" the strings to be forwarded to the HTML-display using the function javascript_escape(). This one guarantees me a proper handling of the quotes, changing some special characters in such a way that they are no problem to pass them as an argument to the javascript that does make the actual popup appear:function javascript_escape($str) { $str = preg_replace("/(\r?\n)|\r/","<br>", nl2br($str)); $str = htmlspecialchars(addslashes($str), ENT_COMPAT, 'ISO8859-15'); return($str);}The call for the popup is:function InsertFixPopup() { // First argument: title // Second argument = style (0 = paragraphs, 1 = bullets, 2 = paragraphs, but third argument is hyperlink-tekst, 4 = bullets, but third argument is hyperlink-tekst) // (Third argument is hyperlink-text) // 3 (or 4)..n args: text-items //$tstr = "<?php QuickSessionStarter(); ?> <body background=\'" . $_SESSION['HBdyC'] . "\'>"; $tstr = "<html><body>"; $title= func_get_arg(0); $typelist= func_get_arg(1); $linktxt = "..."; switch ($typelist) { case 0: $head = "dl"; $shead = "dt"; $bullets = "dd"; $i = 2;// and some more code that is not important here for a good understanding $tstr .= "<$head> <b> $title: </b> </$shead>"; $tstr = "Actual text to be displayed, preceeded and followed by some html formatting"; $tstr .= "<br> <br> <br> <center> <input type=\'submit\' class=\'std\' OnClick=\"window.close();\" value=\'" . $cmdtxt . "\' > </center>"; $tstr .= "</body></html>"; // Now we first properly format the string to make it suitable for JS use: no \n linebreaks ... $ntstr = javascript_escape($tstr); return("<a href='#' OnClick=\"ShowStaticPopup('$ntstr',400,300,'yes');return false;\">$linktxt</a>");Using these kind of escaping etc, I managed to place proper links on my webpages. However, the popup shows the used HTML tags too instead of interpreting them ... I tried also other ways of escaping, but then I got a proper popup, but improper links displaying quotes etc ....Finally, I gave up not knowing how to find one unifying approach that makes my strings parseable by both php and JScript (and eventually MySQL, although I can live with a function that sets everything right for "only" PhP and JScript.) Oh, yes, one last detail: everything should work both on Windows/Linux and IE6/FireFox ... So, I'll be very glad if one can offer a helping hand on how to encode/decode php strings containing characters with accents and quotes in such a way that they are displayed properly by PhP AND by JScript (that's being called by PhP) ...If you can send your answers also to pdemaziere at gmail dot com, I would be very pleased ...thx in advance,Patrick Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/4603-php-mysql-jscript-and-accentsquotes/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
