Hi,

I need to pass a url to a javascript function.Do i need to enclode the url before sending to the java script function,if so how shall i do it in ASP.

<Script language="javascript">
function process_url(lurl)
{
document.frm.action=lurl;
document.frm.submit();
}
</script>

<%
dim a
url="http://www.google.com"
%>
<input type="button" onclick="process_url('<%=url%>')">

this example shows passing url hotmail.com but actually i need to pass urls stored in the database.

I don't think you will need to as it will be encoded by the browser itself won't it??

If you do need to here is the function to encode urls Server.HTMLEncode(url)

I donno,thats why I am asking you guys,I have to be sure with it.

anyone who have done this earlier,pl. respond.

really it should only depend on the urls you could be using... for example are you having a url of

http://www.myweb.com/test.asp&myName=Farmer John

or would it be....

http://www.myweb.com/test.asp&myName=Farmer%20John

if it is the former you would need to encode, if the later you shouldn't need to.... btw, check the edit above for the other part of the answer....

I got the answer I am using Server.URLEncode function
