Allows for the encoding of a string to a particular environment.
O4WEscape(value, type)
The function has the following parameters:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| value | The string to be encoded. |
| type | The encoding type |
| Encoding Type Value | Encoding Type O4WEquates Insert record value |
|---|---|
| 0 | O4W_ESCAPE_HTML$ |
| 1 | O4W_ESCAPE_URL$ |
| 3 | O4W_ESCAPE_URL_COMPONENT$ |
| 4 | O4W_ESCAPE_ID$ |
| null | O4W_ESCAPE_JS$ |
Note that O4W normally takes care of encoding strings as needed; however, it is up to the developer to use valid strings for "name" and "ID" parameters for the O4W calls, and calling O4WEscape with the O4W_ESCAPE_ID$ parameter is one way to ensure that a name or ID is valid.
