escape special characters in xml format

Special characters in sql

Hello

I had a question about the escaping special characters in Oracle. Let's say I have a table column that contains data like '% _Tester % '. I ideally if we do a select on this table, it would be something like

Select * from table where column like '% \_TEST%' escape ' \'

However, when I run this query on sql developer

Select * from table where column like 'TEST %', it returns the same result. (without exhaust the character special _.)

I was just wondering, if this is because default sqldeveloper escapes special characters? or do we still have to write the leak as a good practice?

Thank you!

Lines that are LIKE 'TEST %' will include all lines that are LIKE '\_TEST% %' ESCAPE ' \'. If all lines which that interest you conform to the mask, they will also appear when you perform the first. You can have records that correspond to the first but not the second, although:

SQL > create table testdata until

SELECT 'ABCTESTXYZ' val double UNION ALL

SELECT "AB_TESTXYZ" FROM double

Table created.

SQL > SELECT * FROM testdata WHERE val LIKE '\_TEST% %' ESCAPE ' \'

VAL

----------

AB_TESTXYZ

1 selected line.

SQL > SELECT * FROM testdata WHERE val LIKE '% TEST % '.

VAL

----------

ABCTESTXYZ

AB_TESTXYZ

2 selected lines.

special characters must be escaped - but does that mean exactly?

Hello

I work in codeview. The text I'm formatting is be scientific info which includes things like this: (< 2% incidence) are nausea,...

OK, so the ' < ' causes of getting the error message: special characters must be escaped, and if this text will not be rendered on the page properly.

What should I do so that he can consider this a readable text and not code?

The average of backslash escapes? -take a guess... so it would be / < 2% in my code?

Thank you.

Well Yes, there are a few different codes, you can use to make a larger - and less - than symbols in your text.

> and < are shorter, and which will write mode Design in your code automatically.

XML - text form loading external text contains special characters

Hi @ all...

in my projects, I often use xml files to load external text that I can format it in css and it worked fine until now...

I have a site that I am prograaming in Italian and German and in both languages, there are amount of text that contains special characters like ' to' 'o'' 'e' 'u' 'a' 'u' and so on... the problem is that when I write a text with characters in xml file when the text is loaded into this flash of special characters are not recognized , and instead of them appears a small square...

I tried to load the text from a html instead of an XML file (because in HTML, I know how to write these special characters and let them display right in my pages html... for example = & agrave; but not way... the flash now loades the text & agrave; instead of to...)

How can I solve this problem?

a big thanks to everyone!

Hello

You should probably incorporate the fonts that you use in your FLA file before you publish the SWF file. Just go through the steps in the video @ http://blip.tv/file/2357619 if that helps.

Thank you!

JSON format - Date and special characters

Hi all

I had a JSON server in which, I have a few text values and date.

1. How can I convert special characters to normal String.e.g. Comma etc. ?
2. How can I convert long date, a string in the format e.g. "1345670466960-0400"?

I really appreciate any help above.

Solved... Where the above closure. For others, I will post the solution.

Special characters-

QByteArray buffer(bufSize, 0);
int read = reply->read(buffer.data(), available);
//response = QString(buffer); -- Wrong way to convert the bytes.
response = QString::fromUtf8(buffer); // right way, so special character handled itself.

Day fromatting - for example "/ Date (1345670466960-0400).

QString getStringDate(QString k){
    QDateTime date = QDateTime::fromTime_t(getDate(k));
    QString strDate = date.toString("MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss");
    return strDate;
}
long getDate(QString k) {
    long rc = 0;
    QString v = k;
    if (v.length() > 0 ) {
        int b = v.indexOf("/Date(");
        if (b >= 0) {
            b += 6;
            int e = v.indexOf(')', b);
            if (e > b) {
                QString s = v.mid(b, e);
                int sign = 1;
                if (s.indexOf('-') > 0 || s.indexOf('+') > 0) {
                    sign = s.indexOf('-') > 0 ? -1 : 1;
                    e = sign < 0 ? s.indexOf('-') : s.indexOf('+');
                    s = s.mid(0, e);
                }
                bool *ok = false;
                s = s.mid(0, s.length() - 3); //trimming it for seconds only....
                rc = s.toLong(ok, 0);
            }
        }
    }
    return rc;
}

Search XML with or without special characters

Hello

Please I need your help: I have this XML:

<nodoPrincipal >
<content linkName="" url="" linkType="multi" searchableTerms="generación, vida, familia, ">
<multiLink url="cdw/day1/iAmFrom.doc"/>
<multiLink url="cdw/day1/iAmFrom.pdf"/>
</content>
<content linkName="" url="" linkType="multi" searchableTerms="casa, cama, ropa, ">
<multiLink url="cdw/day1/influences.doc"/>
<multiLink url="cdw/day1/influences.pdf"/>
</content>
<content linkName="" url="day1/Strengths.ppt" linkType="dl" searchableTerms="teléfono, celular, computación, ">
<desc><![CDATA[Strengths Finder]]></desc>
</content>
<content linkName="" url="" linkType="multi" searchableTerms="objeto, carta, mesa, ">
<multiLink url="cdw/day1/haveDoBe.doc"/>
<multiLink url="cdw/day1/haveDoBe.pdf"/>
</content>
</nodoPrincipal>

And this search feature:

//xml loaded above
function processSearchXML(xmlData:XML, searchTerm:String):XMLList
{

  var searchData:XMLList = xmlData.*;

  //if the node has searchable terms, add it to the list
  var searchTerms:XMLList = searchData.(hasOwnProperty('@searchableTerms'));

  //A list for the results
  var searchResults:XMLList = new XMLList();

  for each(var searchItem:XML in searchTerms)
  {
  //gets the attribute searchableTerms 
  var searchSplit:String = [email protected]();

  //builds the array of " , " seperated values
  //so that I can have multiple search terms 
  var searchTerms_ary:Array = searchSplit.split(", ");
  //A list for the results
  var searchResults_ary:Array = new Array();
  //trace(searchTerms_ary.length +" searchable terms in node");

  //search the array 
  for each(var term:String in searchTerms_ary)
  {
  //if the record matches what I searched for, add it to the results array
  if (term == searchTerm)
  {
  //trace(term + " has met the seach craiteria");
  searchResults_ary.push(term);
  }
  }
  //trace(searchResults_ary.length +" results in node");
  //trace();
  //if anything was added to the array 
  //add the branch to the xml list 
  if(searchResults_ary.length != 0)
  {
  searchResults += searchItem;
  }
  }
   trace(searchResults);
  return searchResults;
}

With this feature, I did find whole words, but I want to search for parts of words and search with special characters such as: phone or TV

Help me invite!

use indexOf instead of checking for a match if you want to retrieve partial matches.  for example,.

If (term.indexOf (searchTerm) > - 1).

Instead of

If (term is searchTerm)

Special characters escaped HOWTO if you use regexp_replace and regexp_substr

Hello experts,

following test case

insert into querytest1 (d) values

("#1 (170): [{'type': 'FACEBOOK', 'count': 0, 'Larry': 1382627403299}, {'type': 'GOOGLE', 'count': 0, 'Larry': 1381825285002}, {'type': 'EMAIL', 'count': 2, 'Larry': 1381826322925}] #2(0): #3 (5):-3141 #4 (5):-3141 #5 (5): 21804 #6: (7) 3890750 #7(3): s11'");

Select regexp_replace (d, REGEXP_SUBSTR (REGEXP_SUBSTR (d, ' [^] +', 1, 1), "[^:] +' 1, 2"), ") of querytest1;

ERROR on line 1:

ORA-12726: unparalleled support in regular expression

evidence that the characters special [] {} are the problem:

delete from querytest1;

commit;

-Insert data without special characters

insert into querytest1 (d) values (' #1 (170): 'type': 'FACEBOOK', 'count': 0, 'Larry': 1382627403299, 'type': 'GOOGLE', 'count': 0, 'Larry': 1381825285002, 'type': 'EMAIL', 'count': 2, 'Larry' [: 1381826322925] #2(0): #3 (5):-3141 #4 (5):-3141 #5 (5): 21804 #6: (7) 3890750 #7(3): s11');

Select regexp_replace (d, REGEXP_SUBSTR (REGEXP_SUBSTR (d, ' [^] +', 1, 1), "[^:] +' 1, 2"), ") of querytest1;

REGEXP_REPLACE (D, REGEXP_SUBSTR (REGEXP_SUBSTR(D,'[^]+',1,1),'[^:] +', 1, 2), ")

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[#1 (170): 'FACEBOOK', 'count': 0, 'Larry': 1382627403299,: 'GOOGLE', 'count': 0, 'Larry': 1381825285002,: 'EMAIL', 'count': 2, 'Larry': 1381826322925,: 'EMAIL', 'count': 2, "Lamarre": 1381826322925] #2(0): #3 (5):-3141 #4 (5):-3141 #5 (5): 21804 #6: (7) 3890750 #7 (3): s11

so now it works because there is no characters [special])

is there a way to escape them?

Thank you in advance.

Hello

Since you are using Oracle 11.2, you can do it with a WITH recursive clause, like this:

MERGE INTO dst t

WITH THE HELP OF)

MORPHING (q, result, n_to_do, start_pos, end_pos) AS

(

Q SELECT

,       d || ' ' AS a result

REGEXP_COUNT (q

, '#\d+\(\d+\):'

) AS n_to_do

REGEXP_INSTR (q,

, '#\d+\(\d+\):'

1

REGEXP_COUNT (q

, '#\d+\(\d+\):'

)

) AS start_pos

LENGTH (q) AS end_pos

T

UNION ALL

Q SELECT

REPLACE (result

, ':' || n_to_do | ' '

, NVL (RTRIM (REGEXP_SUBSTR (SUBSTR (q, 1, end_pos))))

, '#\d+\(\d+\):(.*)'

start_pos

1

NULL

1

)

)

, 'NULL '.

)

) AS a result

, n_to_do - 1 AS n_to_do

REGEXP_INSTR (q,

, '#\d+\(\d+\):'

1

BIGGER (1

, n_to_do - 1

)

) AS start_pos

REGEXP_INSTR (q,

, '#\d+\(\d+\):'

1

n_to_do

) - 1 AS end_pos

MORPHING

WHERE n_to_do > 0

)

Q SELECT, result

MORPHING

WHERE n_to_do = 0

) CBC

WE (dst.q = src.q)

WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE

SET dst.result = src.result

;

You can have any number of rows in table t, but they must have a unique key.  I assumed q was unique, highest, but it can be a column or combination of columns.

It works with any number of values.

The character "#" can occur in the values, just that it does not part of the point of shells #-figures-leftparen-figures-rightparen-colon. If "#" occurs in this model, you can't simplify regular expressions, as John.

The above solution was written for the table that you posted in response #6, where q contained values, and d was the formula with the holders of the place for values.  You seem that overthrew in your last message, you may need to reverse I used q and d.

Whatever your problem, it seems to be a way very uncomfortable to solve.  You need to rethink your data model.  In particular, stroring data in delimited as q lists are a bad idea.  Relational databases work best when when each column contains a single value, not a list of any number of values.  It is so basic to the design of database he called first normal form.

This would help a lot if post you more simple examples.  Instead of having 7 values, some close to 200 characters, you could show the problem just as well (better, in fact) with 3 or 4 values, no tha 10 don't characters each.

Problem with special characters loaded from XML

I have a XML with elements that contain special characters (for example: n, N, a, A, etc.), when I load the code XML and do a Trace () the element responsible, I see that it is loaded correctly, but in the text field is not special characters. For example, in the XML file, I have the Bañostext, but in the field indicated text Baos.

It is clear that in the text field consist of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, punctuation symbols, and basic Latin characters.

I also tested with stop System.useCodePage = true in the code, but does not.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Using XML with special characters - not rendered

Rothrock,

With your help, I was able to determine exactly what was going on. You hit the nail head when you mentioned the police include parameters. The people who originally created the file not selected one of the Latin glyphs or no matter what foreign glyphs, so I changed it and republished.

Another problem was that the XML of files that I saved in Homsite were detects not properly register with the UTF - 8 encoding as default does not read Homesite file encoding when you open a file. I changed the setting and now correctly saves it in a file encoded in UTF - 8. (for those who need to know how to change this setting, go to the top in the Options > settings > file settings > check the box ' Enable non ANSI file encoding. ")

Thanks for your help, might not have thought of it otherwise!

Edit: This accidentally marked as the answer, but Rothrock was indeed the answer n the post above...

special characters not available in interactive pdf format

Hello, when you type in one of the textfields in my interactive pdf I noticed that I can't use special characters such as é, to, e... Instead, I get O

I can't choose the police so I'm stuck with this game?

We need forms in combination with forms on our new website. When you fill in on the website that this interactive pdf is automatically created so we can work with the data, so it is very important people can fill their data properly.

What version of InDesign are you using?

Could help upgrade as a similar error was in CS6 in German where we got different letters than Aouaouss.
