Href with imbedded single quote

[Wayne Wengert]

I am trying to build a list of href statements that include parameters as in
the following code:

Response.Write( "<td align='center'> <a href='YTDDetail s1.asp?jname=" &
aryRslt(0,i) & "&jclass=" & ColList(j+1) & "'>" & aryRslt(j,i) & "</a>")

The value of the aryRslt(0,i) is names that can include a single quote (e.g.
"O'Brien") and that truncates the statement. How should I code this to
accomodate that?

Re: Href with imbedded single quote

I dont think single quotes in attribute names are legal, my advice is to
avoid them.

Wayne,

I would look what the UrlEncode method could do for me in your place.

I hope this helps,

Good suggestion - I should have thought of that!
