Hello,
I have a little problem with the escape function.
Here is my code:
function saveData()
{
new Ajax.Request("post.php",
{method:"post",
parameters:''message=''+escape(document.getElementById("shoutitmessage").value)
}
);
}
If I have the escape function in my script I can''t post some
characters e.g. ä,ö,ü,ß but if I don''t have this function in my code I
can''t post ?,& but I can post ä,ö,ü,ß.
Has anybody an idea how to solve this problem?
Thank you!
Gabriel
