        Thanks a lot man for taking the pains in trying to solve my problem...
        nice idea of declaring the illegal characters in the beginning ... but thought that the same could have been done easily using the replace function...
        also.... in case the string is something like this -> tom'jer"ry
        then that code wont work because it will remove ' and combine to give,
        tomjer"ry, which can be overcome using the replace function.

        anyway... my problem is that i am passing values to the displaynames function and not declaring my string inside, so when the string am passing to the function contains an illegal character it throws an error.doesnt go into the function also in that case.
