Using VB.NET in Visual Studio 2010, I have two files:
"test2.aspx" and "test2.aspx.vb".
The aspx file is basically as follows:
<%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="test2.aspx.vb" Inherits="App_test2" %>
<html>
<head>[code].....
Is there something I can do so the source code doesn't escape characters like "&", "'", "<", and ">" ?
We know a tolower function will turn all A to a How to turn all à to a.The purpose is I am creating ids for databases and id need to be unique. Sometimes the same stores are written as à in one place and as a on other places. This will create duplicate id problem.So I need a function that will turn all à and all of it's variation into a. The same way ě should become e.
Basically I would use utf8_unicode collation on my databases. Letters that count as the same letter under that collation should map to the same character under this function.I need to make sure that all other east asian characers are not affected in anyway.
I have the following in my aspx.

How can I get the < > " characters to render properly?
I have a byte array that I'm encoding to a string:[code]Then I write that to a file via IO.File.AppendAllText.If I open that file in 010 Editor (to view the binary data) it displays as this:47 43 44 53 79 73 74 65 6D 73 3F 0A 01 32 31 36..The original byte array contained 89 at position 11, and the encoded string contains 3F.If I change my encoding to Encoding.Default.GetString, it gives me:47 43 44 53 79 73 74 65 6D 73 E2 80 B0 0A 01 32 31 36.
View 1 RepliesI am doing some url redirections in a project that I am currently working on. I am new to web development and was wondering what the best practise was to remove any illegal path characters, such as ' ? etc.I'm hoping I don't have to resort to manually replacing each character with their encoded urls.
I have tried UrlEncode and HTMLEncode, but UrlEncode doesn't cater for the ? and HTMLEncode doesn't cater for '
E.G. If I was to use the following:
Dim name As String = "Dave's gone, why?"
Dim url As String = String.Format("~/books/{0}/{1}/default.aspx", bookID, name)
Response.Redirect(url)
I've tried wrapping url like this:
Dim encodedUrl As String = Server.UrlEncode(url)
And
Dim encodedUrl As String = Server.HTMLEncode(url)
I am writing a console application, which reads emails from different email boxes and processes through them. Emails are received from various automated systems. The email messages are logged and/or sent forward.
The problem is that some emails are encoded in UTF-8 and transfer-encoded in quoted-printable which messes up special characters (mainly ä,ö and å). I have not found any solution to convert them in readable format.
For example "ä" in quoted-printable is "=C3=A4". Using a normal conversion methods the result is "ä" (gibberish).
I shamelessly ripped this example conversion table from here: [URL]
[Code].....
So how do I get the real codepoint from UTF-8 value? I'd rather not use any external libraries. Besides I've tried a couple already and they failed.
So far so good... In asp we have the HttpUtility.UrlEncodeIs there any equivelant in vb.netI tried importing the system.web without any luck... yet
View 3 RepliesI am developing, in VB.Net, an application that reads from text files using a FileStream Object. I do not use a StreamReader, since the buffering it does makes it impossible to use Seek.hose text files form a database, with both index and data files. In index files, all fields are fixed-length, which is not the case in data files.I've recently run into a problem. Since some of my files contain accents, the corresponding characters take more that 1 Byte. Therefore, when I seek in the index file, and offset appears the rest of my index file is not read in the right way
View 4 RepliesI was wondering how to implement a custom character set for use by an application, i.e. hex bytes that are read by the program then converted and displayed in the window.

I'm writing with VB.NET 2010, and running Windows 7 Home Premium x64, by the way.

Is there away to prevent an MDI child form from being auto maximized?
The problem I have is this. I have an mdi application that contains 2 mdi child forms. When I show the first form and maximize it so that it fills the mdi window I can't load the second form non maximized.
Vb.net automatically maximizes the second form despite the fact that I didn't tell it too! If I then restore the second form to its normal size it then does the same with the first form. This is all very strange to me. When you maximize one form inside an MDI window it maximizes them all.[code]...
How could I prevent a Windows Form from automatically docking when the form gets dragged to the left or right side of the screen in Windows 7? This is a neat feature in W7, however, for my form it does not make sense (a data input form). Sometimes I drag the form to the right to read some information on a website and input them, yet, under W7 this form docks onto the right half of the screen when I do so.
View 5 RepliesI have a Windows 2003 server that we regularly RDP in to monitor some programs that we set up to run on the machine automatically.However, the server will automatically log me out after a few minutes of inactivity. Unfortunately the server admin (who has the admin rights to the server, which I don't) is reluctant to remove such restrictions "for security reasons".
Therefore, instead of me trying to fill up 10000 piece of paper getting a security exemption, I am just wondering if there is any tiny program that I can run on the server (either a script or some VB.NET code) that will trick the server into thinking I am constantly typing something even though I am not (For example, as if I am moving my mouse cursor once every 30 seconds or type any letter then erase it in notepad)?Note that since I do not have admin rights, any installation is certainly out of question, and the script, if any, can not require admin rights to run properly.

All I would like to do is remove one character from the line of the text file that I am reading, which is the first character and also prevent the program from crashing if no text file is present.Here is the code. Can anyone notice where I am going wrong? I thought the "if" statement would cover the crash but it didn't. Clueless, but sort of have an idea on the character removal.

View 3 RepliesI am working on a sub that essentially needs to open a text file, and replace all instances of a certain character with a unicode character. I'm trying to do this by reading the original text file byte by byte, converting it to a character, and then either adding that character to a memory stream or writing the unicode character to the memory stream. Then I'm saving the memory stream to the original file.

For each character of this string I want a new character out of the string and then remove the character from the list of characters that still maybe used for other characters. It may not get the same character, you could basically just call this encryption, but it's not what I am making. I don't want to waste my time doing this one hour while VB can do this for me in <1 second.
I am writing a hangman type game and I am displaying the word to the user in a label as all *'s, but I cannot figure out how to have just one of the *'s changed in the label to the correct letter when the user inputs the correct letter into the text box and clicks the check letter button.Everything else in the program works perfectly, except for this part.[code]When I use the .Replace it changes all of the *'s to the correct selected letter.
