TextInput.restrict how to escape backslash in ActionScript?

I want to prevent input of a number of characters in my TextInput control including comma, tilde, semicolon, single quote, pipe, double quote, caret and backslash. Got everything working except backslash. Tried including double backslash but that didn't work. Suggestions?
static const RESTRICT:String = "^,~;'|\"\\^";

Found the answer here http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AS2LCR/Flash_10.0/help.html?content=00002045.html
RESTRICT:String = "^,~;'|\\\^\\\\;

[JS CS3] RegExp Object containing only one backslash (how to escape)

Hi
I'm trying to escape one backslash in my RegExp Object, but I get a Syntax Error:
     myObj = new RegExp ( "\\" );
I tried it phyton Style   myObj = new RegExp ( "\\\\" ); but that's not working right.
Thanks for any hint.
Stefan

Stefan,
First of all, in your sample text you need to escape your backslash as well:
myText = "This is an \\ of search and replace.";
You can see this in these examples:
alert ("a\rb") prints "a" then "b" on a new line; alert ("a\\rb") prints "a\rb".
Another problem is that you use a regex as the replacement object (myWhit), but that should be a string. With these two things corrected, it works fine:
function main()
     var myText = "This is an \\ of search and replace.";
     var myWhat = new RegExp ( "\\\\" );
     var myWhatSearch = new RegExp ( "\\\\" );
     var myWhit = "example";
     alert( myReplaceExample( myText, myWhatSearch, myWhat, myWhit) );
     return true;
That new RegExp ("\\") can't be correct can be seen if you start with a literal regex, in which you would use an escaped backslash:
myText = myText.replace (/\\/, "example")
To use \\ in a new RegExp () construction, you need to place it in a string, and you need to escape both backslashes, so you end up with "\\\\".

How to escape the double quote in URL

Hi,
I know that using backslash we can escape the ',' while sending the data between pages using URL.
Can any body please help me how to escape the double quotes.
Thanks a lot.

Thanks again for the reply and now I am able to encrypt and decrypt my document number... one more question please : will it be possible to chnage the whole URL to some basic message type URL for eg:
let's say our URL is "http://testdoc/post?mssg" and I want to change this to as "OPEN DOCUMENT" and when user clicks on ""OPEN DOCUMENT" it will still direct to the original destination that is our original URL.
I have been told that we don;t want to maintain custom table until and unless it's our last choice.
Thanks,
Rajat

How to escape a single quotes from a string of dynamic sql clause?

if a single quotes exist in a dynamic sql clause for a string,
like
v_string :='select tname from tab where tabtype='table'',
there tabtype='table' will conflict with the single quote ahead.
could somebody tell me how to escape this single quotes?
thanks for your tips,

fredrick,
To represent one single quotation mark within a literal, enter two single quotation marks. For example :
v_string :='select tname from tab where tabtype=''table'''

   maktx type maktx,
end of t_mat.

Hi Sandra,
First of all thaks for your quick answer to my problem.
I see what you mean and get the same result, if I am using data-type string instead of xstring. But the recommendation in the XML-Books of SAP is to use XSTRING to save memory and circumflex problems between Codepages, when writing the XML-Stream to a filesystem.
As you can see in the code abvoe I am using a SAP-FM to display the XML-Stream and this FM works only with XSTRING´s,
that is one reason why I don´t understand that it displays it in the wrong way.
Even the Debugger shows me for the XSTRING the wrong result. Does all that mean that the escaping will not be applyed if you are working with XSTING´s??

How to escape % or % in a String?

Hi, friends, I need to use a string variable, but don't know how to escape <% and %> in string, I tried to put \ between < and %, but compiler said it was invalid escape character. and do I need to escape / , too? thanks for any help. the code is here:
<% String sc;
if (request.getParameter("operation")==null) {
sr="/servlet/littleBee_proj.Change_PCServlet?red=<%= request.getParameter("red")%>&
green=<%= request.getParameter("green")%>&blue=<%= request.getParameter("blue") %>&
applique.x=<%= request.getParameter("applique.x") %>&
applique.y=<%= request.getParameter("applique.y") %>";
else {
sr="/servlet/littleBee_proj.Change_PCServlet?red=<%= request.getParameter("red") %>&
green=%= request.getParameter("green") %>&blue=<%= request.getParameter("blue") %>&
applique.x=<%= request.getParameter("applique.x") %>&applique.y=<%= request.getParameter("applique.y") %>&
operation=<%= request.getParameter("operation") %>";
%>
<br> <INPUT TYPE="IMAGE" NAME="applique" SRC="<%= sr %>" >
</FORM>
</BLOCKQUOTE>

You won't need the escape characters, because you don't need the <% and %>. You're already inside a java block, so go ahead and take advantage of it. Simply append the method call to your string as you usually would.
<% String sc;
if (request.getParameter("operation")==null) {
sr="/servlet/littleBee_proj.Change_PCServlet?red="+request.getParameter("red")
+"&green="+request.getParameter("green")+"&blue="+ request.getParameter("blue")
+"&applique.x="+ request.getParameter("applique.x") +"&applique.y="
+request.getParameter("applique.y");
}Also, unless you know exactly what you're getting back from your request.getParameter() methods, it's usually a good idea to enclose them with single quotes ( ' ) in case there's a space or something in there. If there guaranteed to be numeric though, then you're probably ok.

Use two single quotes inside your literals to represent one single quote.
For example, this would find my name:
SELECT *
FROM emp
WHERE name = 'Michael O''Neill';
Michael O'Neill

How to escape string that SQLCMD thinks is a variable but isn't.

Hi All,
I've got a SQLCMD script where I use :setvar like I usually do. As part of its work it calls a stored procedure that has a parameter whose value is a string. Part of the string being passed looks like this.
Objects="$(INSTANCE)"
Now my SQLCMD script is throwing and error like the following.
A fatal scripting error occurred.
Variable INSTANCE is not defined.
How do I escape that $(INSTANCE) inside the string that SQLCMD thinks is a variable for it to use so that the string gets loaded into the table as it supposed to be? I'm failing to find how to escape
a variable that isn't actually a variable.
Joe
Joe Moyle

To anyone interested I was able to solve this. In the string being passed in as a parameter I was able to replace the $ with
+
CHAR(36)
+
and it works perfectly.
