Hi list, Does anyone know how to send * a semi-colon from a realtime database. I know that * uses the semi-colon as a 'seperator' - but I need to be able to use one in a command. I know I can use \; in the non-realtime configs, but this doesn't work in realtime.

I'd forgot about doing it that way (I use that for $).
