Hi,

Has anyone ever seen ' (apostophe) become " (quotes) for no reason? In a new poll I created, for example, no matter how many times I log back in, clear cache, log in as a different user, etc., Don't becomes Don""t. Once, I even saw three """s. Personally, I think it's a gremlin because it's doing it on its own.

Also, as a complete newbie, I have a couple of ideas that could be added to the Poll Mod ReadMe_First file. Anyone know if, and who, I should contact?

Thanks.

Fitz

You could try contacting the author. I think Davio is author. He happens to be around the snitz forums.

Post a link to a txt version of your post_info.asp file. Have you done a search on this. I feel I have fixed this a dozen times already.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I did a search. I'm not sure that I did what you suggested, but here's what I thought you meant: http://www.patriotmusic.com/post_info.txt

I just installed this and have the same problem with apostrophes (single quote ') becoming double quotes ( " ). Everything else appears to be fine, any suggestions? This is the only thread I can find on this subject. I don't mind reading posts for the answer just link me to the fix please.

Thanks in advance.

Fitz, lines 844 and 467 in your post_info.asp, you need to edit to look like this, with the code in red removed:
txtAns(i) = chkString(Request.Form("answer" & CStr(i)),"SQLString")
This and surrounding code looks like this:
	' ##################### Poll Mod ######################
	if Request.Form("poll") = "1" then
		ReDim txtAns(strMaxVotes)
		for i = 1 to strMaxVotes
			if trim(Request.Form("answer" & CStr(i))) <> "" then
				txtAns(i) = chkString(Request.Form("answer" & CStr(i)),"SQLString")
			else
				txtAns(i) = ""
			end if
		next
	end if
' #####################################################

Uncouthed, you can find the similar code in your post_info.asp file and make the same changes. If you can't find it, post a link to a txt version of your post_info.asp file.

Thanks. Sorry it's taken so long to respond. I've been away. I'm going to try it now.
