  Hi Siraj

  Try this out

  var myLinks = app.documents[0].links.everyItem().getElements(),
      badCharReg = /[^A-z0-9]/g,
      l = myLinks.length,
      badLinks = [],
      linkName = "";
  while (l--) {
      linkName = myLinks[l].name.split(".")[0];
      if (badCharReg.test(linkName)) badLinks.push(linkName);
  }
  if (badLinks.length) alert("Check out these\n"+badLinks.join("\n"));

  Thank you.

  This can work:

  select * from your_table where replace(translate(your_column,' abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890','x'),'x','') is not null

• How to find special characters in a string of give/sentance

  Hi all
  
  I have a task to complete with the time to give. Because I'm not very good in PL/SQL, I need you're help.
  Condition is:
  
  I must come with the SQL or PL/SQL code which should return and find the hidden or special character in the name of the data files in a database. There are nearly 400 + database are present in almost any flavor of UNIX, and I need to check the database each.
  
  As you know, the name of the data file will be like this:

   /u02/instance_name\oradata\datafile_01.dbf 

  So, it should avoid these things and only discover the special characters in the name of the data file.
  

   
  a-z , A-Z , 0-9 and \ 

  Please keep in mind that... I'll be pulled the script Oracle the Oracle 9i client that will access all the databases of Oracle 9i to 11g in a short and give me the result.
  
  Please help me to solve this problem and let me know if you need more information.

  Hi Frank,.

  It is an excellent service. Thanks for you response.
  I want to change the query that... I should get only the name of these data files that are special characters of detention. I don't know how to put it in that condition. :(

  Here's one way:

  SELECT  file_name
  ,       ...     -- other expressions, if you want any
  FROM    dba_data_files
  WHERE   TRANSLATE ( file_name
                    , '?0123456789.ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ\_/abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'
                    , '?'
                    ) IS NOT NULL
  

  Among other expressions, you can put in the SELECT clause (if you wish) is a copy of the TRANSLATE function, you had in your message. That would underline exactly what characters rendering invalid file name.

  Hi all, I am using Oracle 10 g.
  
  I have a column name with special characters. How can I replace the special characters in the column with space and no space based on the special character. Please see the example below. can I use REGEXP_REPLACE?
  
  create table

  create table sample_test (
    Name    VARCHAR2(20 BYTE))

  Insert a table

   insert into sample_test values ('O''NEIL')
       insert into sample_test values ('B.E.VICTOR')
        insert into sample_test values ('WILLIAM,L')
         insert into sample_test values ('MARY-ANNE')
             insert into sample_test values ('VON_ANCKEN')
              insert into sample_test values ('BROWN;L')

  Please notify.
  
  Thank you

  A simple solution without the use of regexp:

  -- Test Data
  with sample_test as
  (
  select 'O''NEIL' name from dual union all
  select 'B.E.VICTOR'  name from dual union all
  select'WILLIAM,L' name from dual union all
  select'MARY-ANNE' name from dual union all
  select'VON_ANCKEN' name from dual union all
  select'BROWN;L' name from dual
  )
  -- Query:
  select name old_name,
         translate(replace(name,'''',''),'.,-_;','     ') new_name
  from sample_test;
  

  Explanation:

  REPLACE deletes the quote
  TRANSLATE replaces point, comma, dash, semicolon and underscore

• Regexp: Find consecutive special characters

  Hello
  
  I need to check the names according to the strict rules and most of them that I could solve by using regular expressions. Now there's one that I can't solve with a single expression:
  
  "Several identical characters must not be consecutive.
  
  Special characters would be considered as any character with an accent like e or aouss.
  This means that 'Global' is allowed because SSA are two different special characters but not "Kaamann".
  
  Concerning
  Marcus

  You can use a backreference make to match more than one occurrence of the same character...

  with t as (
  select 'Käßmann' as x from dual union all
  select 'Käämann' as x from dual
  )
  select x from t where regexp_like(x,'([äöüßé])\1')
  ;
  

  .. .assuming you have a complete list of special characters that you can specify in the function regexp_like.

  Kind regards

  Thank you.

  If you have your English keyboard, then you can use the standard Mac shortcuts.  For acute, you more e option, then the basic letter.  e is more e, then e option.

  If you have your keyboard to something else, like Italian, then it might be different.  That your keyboard is set to?

• Chips and other special characters in the App World descriptions

  How is one makes chips and other special characters in the description of the app in the supplier portal?  I see various descriptions app with chips so I know it's possible.  I tried Googling the answer, but to no avail.  Can someone point me to the documentation for it?

  Thank you

  I think it's just the Unicode text, so if you include these characters when you submit the form, they will display.

  Your question is perhaps more on how to insert these characters into the HTML form. To do this, because I need it rarely, I didn't copy and paste of a website where I can find the required text. For example, Google for 'unicode ball' and you can find one of them on one of the first findings of the research, such as the Wikipedia article.

  Some people probably have their systems set up to type Unicode directly from their keyboard, but I never got to determine the modern way to do this (and the last time I checked, years, Unicode in operating systems support was still largely missing).

• Read the special characters from the txt file

  Hi guys,.

  on blackberry 9000, I tried to read some special characters like this: ° ²® µ±³ ° ¯´µ±´¯® text file

  using this function:

  FileConnection fc = (FileConnection) Connector.open ("file:///SDCard/test.txt", Connector.READ_WRITE);
  InputStream is = fc.openInputStream ();
  InputStreamReader reader = new InputStreamReader (is, "UTF - 8");
  LineReader lineReader = new LineReader (is);
  line & = new String (lineReader.readLine ());

  what I get is different, I can't write it here, it is difficult to find these characters.

  I change the content of the file to:

  ddfdsfdsfdsfdsfdsf
  aaaaabbbc ° ² ° ¯´µ±´¯® µ±³®

  now I get:

  ddfdsfdsfdsfdsfdsf
  aaaaabbbc, then the same characters

  How to display the same as what I have in the text file?

  Thank you

  To add to what martijnbrinkers said, you need not to the InputStreamReader because you don't use it (and this is why your code has no idea that the file is in UTF-8 encoding).

• Special characters of blackBerry Smartphones?

  How can I use special characters (example: an 'e' with an accent as used in the french language, etc.) on my bb 9300?

  While pressing the 'e' key, highlight your trackball side by side, you will find the different variations of e.

  You can do it with most of the keys for special characters.
