Ftp and special chars
I have a site which is user generated, and some of the files
that people upload contain special chars for example 'my*pic.jpg'
... I am trying to backup my server with dreamweaver ftp, however
it wont let me download files with chars like * in their names...
is there any way to override this in dreamweaver? thanks to any
responders.

Uh, this would be an invalid filename on most filesystems.
The asterisk
is usually a wildcard character.

Such files shouldn't exist at all. How were they uploaded?

IWeb ftp and special characetrs on page names
I was having trouble publishing a site with iWeb via ftp. Testing the connection worked fine and publishing the site would work up to a point, and then give an error (there was an error publishing your site- try again later). I renamed the site on the ftp settings so that there were no special characters (:,-/ etc) and renamed the pages and eliminated these special characters. This seems to have fixed the issue. Anyone have a similar experience?
Been tring to upload a site using the new iWeb 09 FTP feature to our OS X server. The "test connection" went well, the upload appeared to go well, but when I went to "visit" the site i get File Not Found. I found where iWeb 09 put the site on the server (library/FTPServer/FTPRoot/). I found the index.html file and was able to access and view the site from a web browser (Open File).
Is there a setup issue on the server side to allow access to public when using iWeb 09 FTP feature?
We have been uploading this site to the server, and viewing via the web, with no problem using a 3rd party FTP software (Cyberduck) for a while now.
Any thoughts

Reading a string and remove chars
Hi,
I am new the java and I am having a problem with converting a string to an int. I have a data comming in to gbyte_in which is "1;1;1". I am then converting it to a string a spliting it up into three vars to hold each value. I am then converting the string to a int so I can use it. The problem comes when I try to convert the last value as I get a
numberformatexception, I think there must be some chars such as Enter or line feed at the end causing the problem. I have tried using the gstr_string.replace('\n',' ') but still having the problem.
I have put a basic example of what I am doing below, If someone could help a beginner with understanding what I am doing wrong I would be very greatful
Thanks
Joolz
** Start code**
byte[] gbyte_in;
private void CheckData_In()
int i;
/* make STRING of BYTE */
String lstr_temp = new String(gbyte_in);
/* take STRING a make an INT*/
i = Integer.parseInt(lstr_temp);
** End code **Hi,
I have,
this is what comes in 1;2;3
I can convert 1 and 2 to an int but 3 throws the error, I am just doing a substring looking for the ";". So I think there must be some special chars at the end, but I cannot find a way of removing them before I convert it to an int.
Thanks

Thanks in advance…..
Edited by: EJP on 15/03/2011 16:52: added code tags. Please use them. Code is unreadable otherwise.Thanks for your response….
This is enhancement project and some one develops long back.
Regarding point (b) You should be using the java.net.URLEncoder to encode URL parameters, not a base64 encoder.
DocumentSummarizerClient.java I am using base64
Ex:
// String encoded =new String (summaryInputData.getBytes("ISO-8859-1"),"UTF-8");
String encoded=Base64Utils.base64Encode(summaryInputData.getBytes());
// encoded =new String (summaryInputData.getBytes("ISO-8859-1"),"UTF-8");

//System.out.println("<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?><![CDATA["+summarizedData+"]]>");
System.out.println("Summarized data "+summarizedData);

summarizedData="Data given cannot be summarized further";
Above specific please I need to modify to resolve above issue.
Could you please suggest me what changes I need to do.

Dealing with MS Word special chars
Hi,
Is there a java.String method (or similar) which will replace MS Word special chars - such as "culry apostrophes" - with HTML compliant versions?
cheers
Hugh
Edited by: inabind on Aug 11, 2008 7:39 AMYes. Oddly enough their names start with "replace".
But you don't necessarily need to convert the left curly quote to ߡ or whatever it converts to. You could also use UTF-8 as your HTML's encoding and just leave that character as is. -
How can I Retrieve special chars from a HTTP Request??
Hi,
I want to retrieve special chars from a request
Chars like accents used in spanish languages or symbols?
Is there any way to do it
Thanks in advance
Alejandro ArredondoThis is my problem
For example:
This is my form:
<form>
<input type="text" name="test">
</form>
I do write a char on the text area. Something like "?" or "?"
or some words with accents
When I retrieve the value with
String value = request.getParameter("test");
and print it
out.println("TEST= " + test);
It prints another symbol that isn't the one I sent in my form.
why?
Thanks -
Problem with special chars in BLOB datatype using contains keyword
Facing problem, when part searching with special chars in BLOB datatype. It is considering the non alpha-numeric chars as a separtor in a provided string
EX:
SELECT *
FROM RESUME_TEST P,grst_candidate d
WHERE d.candidate_id = p.candidate_id
AND CONTAINS(P.CAND_RESUME,'%VB.NET%',1) > 0
Strings: , VB.NET , PL/SQL AS/400 , C etc..
Followed the below approaches
1) created a table:
Syntax: create table resume_Test(cand_id number(10),cand_resume blob);
2) inserted the values into this table upto 60,000
3) created a context index
3.1 created preferences
Syntax:
BEGIN
ctx_ddl.create_preference('try_lexer3','BASIC_LEXER');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute('try_lexer3','printjoins','-_~!@#$%^&*(){}[],=?\;|><.+');
END;
3.2 created context index
Syntax:
CREATE INDEX CANDRESUME_CTX_IDX ON resume_test (cand_resume)
INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT
PARAMETERS ('LEXER try_lexer3 memory 500M');
4) while executing this index, it is taking much time approx 6 hrs(plz explain why it is taking time)
5) Problems:
5.1 when searching with string(VB.NET , PL/SQL AS/400 , C etc..) it is considering the special char as a separator
5.2 used escape char (\) also, but no effect
5.3 when searching with single char, it is giving error (ORA-29902,ORA-20000,DRG-51030)
5.4 getting the above error with wild card chars (& ,_, (),{},[])
So, please explain the clear scenarios, why am getting this error , and how to get the proper results.Have you tried adding the / char to the printjoin characters?
Indexing can take a lot of time, depending on the amount of data and your machine's power. You could try to parallelize the index creation and / or assign more memory
CREATE INDEX CANDRESUME_CTX_IDX ON resume_test (cand_resume)
INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT
PARAMETERS ('LEXER try_lexer3 memory 2000M') PARALLEL 8; -
Page encoding / charset / special chars / NON-ASCII chars
Whenever special characters are used in our environment, the data is stored incorrect ...
® gets converted to ®
and other special chars gets converted to other special chars ... the strange thing is that some inputText fields in some pages work just fine ..chars dont get converted and it happend in some other many pages ...not sure whats going on ..I tried to change the charset or the pageEncoding of the pages or even manually using the setPageEncoding in the reequest and in the response ..with no luck ...when I print the request params ..the values are converted, so ma not sure at what stage the string get converted and how to prevent it ...
Charset of the jsp-page is UTF-8. Need help here please.
Thanks.You must verify that all resources are in UTF-8. There are a couple of places you have to check:
Compiler encoding
Embedded OC4J JSP Compiler options
Project settings
After that it worked for me.

RDF Report Output Got Displayed in Special Chars
Team,
RDF report output is getting displayed in special chars.
when i query the data from SQL Developer, the data is displayed fine.
But when the data is displayed in the report the characters(single quotes, double quotes) are not displayed properly, they are displayed in a special char.
why it is happening so . Is it related any font missing ? Plz do let me know.
thanks
sridhar(single quotes, double quotes) These are probably not really single and double quotes. Check the ASCII value.
drop table ttest;
create table ttest (col1 varchar2(10));
insert into ttest values ('''Quote''');
insert into ttest values ('"Quote"');
select * from ttest;
select dump(col1) from ttest;

Thanks,
sriniHi Hemant,

when we remove this & it is going through fine. I want to know how can we handle this in XI or do we need to remove that one from the third party system itself

Handling special char at BizTalk end?
I am receiving message as flat file which may contain special char like <> ' "....... etc
Can any one tell me how can i handle it at BizTalk end.
If i am converting it into xml due to data, it is not a valid xml.
<FirstName> <John miller</FirstName>
And single quotes ' can create problem in sql query .
Can any one let me know how could i handle it.Hi Phill,
Let’s be clear when you mean by “special character” in flat-file schema.
If the special character which your referring are not the delimiters used in your schema or any escape characters (about escape characters I’ll refer later), then as la
Cour said, XML shall handle them without any issues. If you have these characters, as you highlighted, you will have XML file/element like “<FirstName>
<John miller</FirstName>”. It’s still a valid XML file.
But if you don’t want this characters to be saved into SQL database i.e for the above XML element if don’t want the character “<” saved along with “John
miller” as “<John miller”, then you need to have a custom pipeline component to remove those characters.
Escape character:
If you know that a character which could come in an element, then you can use “Escape Character” property for the element where you can specify the character you want to
ignore. i.e of you expect character “<” to come with FirstName element, then you can specify the escape character property as “<” in the “FirstName” element.
More special character to ignore:
As said XML can parse these characters without issue. But if you don’t want to send those characters to your destination system (SQL), then after parsing the flat-file into
XML, use a custom pipeline component to replace all the special character from the parsed XML.
Following article discuss about this concept:

to remove invalid character in incoming XML message using custom pipeline component

Special Char disappear after the JMS Adpater
Hi all,
I have a problem and nees help because I don't know the solution.
We send a flat Idoc via a JMS Adapter from XI to a Websphere Queue.
The flat Idocs have special chars like "ø", "ö", "ä"...
Unforunately in the message on the queue (after the JMS adapter) we miss this chars and one char behind the special char. They are away.
In XI I can see that the char are there.
So I think the that JMS adapter removes this files.
Can you help me please? What do I need to change in the JMS adapter?
Thanks and regards
Manuelasounds like an encoding problem. Seems there is a way to change the encoding at the JMS receiver side.
Have a look at this thread : Re: Change encoding from utf-8 to iso-8859-1 in JMS receiver! -
Replacing space with special char in reporting
I have created a calculatd Keyfigure where if the consition given in the calculated KF satisfies then it displays 1 otherwise space ,now mu user wants space to be replaced by some special charcter
Example
My ckf is like this overallscore >= 90 & Iam applying count on this
Vendor CKF
X 1
Y
Z 1
As vendor y is not satsifying the condition its showing with space now I want to replace space with some special char how is this possibleHi Priya,
You can try this: Instead of space, fill this with a 0. Then in the query properties, set the Show Zero As and give your special char, like may be *. But this will be okay if you do not have other zeros in the report...else you may need to do some VB coding.
Hope this helps...
