RE: strip quotes

2003-03-10 Thread Raymond Camden
rTrim removes spaces. If you want to remove one char from the end, you
can use left.



This says, basically, take N characters from the left where N is the
length minus one.

You could also use a regex to replace a single quote at the end.

This code shows how the regex will remove the quote at the end, but
won't do anything if the quote isn't there...







#str# - #str2#

RE: strip quotes

2003-03-10 Thread Charlie Griefer
If you know that the only double-quote will be that last character, you can
do:

#replace(myString, , "", "all")# (i think that should work...escaping
double quotes inside of double quotes always fries my brain).

You can also use a conditional to check to see if the last character is a
double-quote...and if so, remove that character:





(same caveat applies re: escaping the quote :)

hth,

Hello,

I know this is an easy one, but I don't use CF all the time so it escapes
me.

How do I strip quotes from a string? It appears towards the end; ie:
TID=227" Do I use rtrim?

Thanks.

you can use the replace function or the right function, probably some others
too.

Hello,

I know this is an easy one, but I don't use CF all the time so it escapes
me. 

How do I strip quotes from a string? It appears towards the end; ie:
TID=227" Do I use rtrim?

Thanks.
