You need to use the ENCODE() procedure provided with CGIDEV2. It will
handle strings up to 32767. It will only handle the characters ", &, <, >.
Make sure that the input field isn't too close in size to 32767 or your
output field will be truncated.

Subject: Special Characters with CGIDEV2


Hello,



I am trying to display Spool files in a browser using RPG and CGIDEV2
functionality; the problem appears when inside the Spool file there are
special characters like & < > (I update the HTML variables using
updHTMLvar() function)

How is it possible to "trick" the XML to not consider these characters
as special ones? I found a function htmlentities(), but it seems like
this function is not available with CGIDEV2.



Thanks,



Florin Todor
