I escape spaces and character entities in form fields; if you do the following: <input name="x" size=20 maxlength=20 value="<%= someVal %>"> and someVal contains space characters (or worse, '>'), it won't display properly. If you escape the spaces, it will, and this is what I use the method for. If I'm emitting HTML where I know what it will be beforehand, I simply include any appropriate character entities in my resource strings. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
