(Un)escape function

[Chris]

Hi,

Does anyone know if there are ASP equivalents of the Javascript functions
escape and unescape. These functions turn a string to and from their hex/ascii
equivalents.

E.g.
escape("test string") = "test%20string"
unescape("test%20string") = "test string"

I am in the process of writing these functions, but don't want to waste time
if they already exist, etc.

Thanks,
Chris

See the Server.URLEncode and Server.HTMLEncode methods. Also, you can
include a Javascript function on the page (even if the primary language for
the page is VBScript), e.g.

<script language="JScript" runat="Server">
Response.write(unescape("test%20string") + "<br>");
Response.write(escape("test string") + "<br>");
</script>
