I don't know exactly what you're trying to do, but I am pretty sure that the PreserveSingleQuotes function has NO effect when it's not inside a <cfquery> tag.
So there is ZERO difference between this: <CFSET TitleSearch="Where (Title Like '#PreserveSingleQuotes(Attributes.Title)#%'"> and this: <CFSET TitleSearch="Where (Title Like '#Attributes.Title#%'"> It's only purpose is to prevent single quotes from being doubled up inside cfquery. Since you're not inside cfquery when you are running the preserveSingleQuotes() function, it doesn't do anything. - Rick [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I have a page for users to search what is in the database. > There are a half dozen different things they can search on. > Title/Author/Genre/Etc > My action page pulls all the chosen criteria together and sends it to a > stored procedure. > It is not working when a user types in a ' into a title. > I've added the PreserveSingleQuotes to the title piece: > <CFSET TitleSearch="Where (Title Like > '#PreserveSingleQuotes(Attributes.Title)#%'"> > I added it to the code that pulls all the criteria together: > <CFSET SearchThis="#PreserveSingleQuotes(Title)# #Genre# #Grade# #Voice# > #Type#)"> > And lastly I added it to the stored procedure.
