access_asp thread: Big5: HTMLencode but no decode


Message #1 by ozdefy@y... on Thu, 16 Jan 2003 07:12:57
I have trawled for answers to this problem but haven't succeeded, so here 
goes...

On page1.ASP I have a form into which users enter text in Chinese 
character set (page is set for Big5 in Meta Tag)

Page2.ASP gets the text from the form using requext.Form() but the text 
has already been encoded to &#xxxx; format.

I need to write the text using the FileSystemObject to a Unicode text 
file on the server so I need to get the text in its non-encoded format.

Since VBscript doesn't have the HTMLdecode, how can I achieve this? 
(Either: how can I get the form not to encode it - OR - how can I decode 
it on request.Form() ?)

Cheers,
Ozdefy
