[Javascript] Problems with strings...

[BEKIM BACAJ]

That's very interesting!!!
You're first question is suitable for starters stadium, but the secont is surelly not
I will answer you're first question:

This: \ -sign, is escape character.
so if you wan't to replace this character in a string you have to escape the first
this way:

HREF = HREF.replace('\\', '/'),  

if you continue to have the same problem try to add this also:

HREF = HREF.replace('\\', '\/'),  I use it in html strings, maybe it is needed here to,
 like:  
var theDiv = "<DIV id=someid style='some style'>some text<\/DIV>"

Cheers!

Hi, I'm new in the list and also I'm new in Javascript...I've got a few
questions...

First, when I write:
HREF = HREF.replace('\', '/');
I get an error of "incomplete string", how can I solve this?? I try
replacing quotes by ", but nothing happened, same error occurs...

Second, I use the Scripting.FileSystemObject object to load a file (of any
type), the code is as follow:
    BinFile = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Stream");
    BinFile.Open();
    BinFile.LoadFromFile(FileName);
    BinFile.Type = adTypeBinary;
    BinData = BinFile.Read();
    BinFile.Close();
    BinFile = null;
    Response.Write(BinData);

This works ok, except that it displays "???" chars...I know that this is
because BinFile.Read() returns a Variant data, but I can't find anything
related to Variants type in my javascript's tutorial, so I have to convert
this variant (BinData) to a string, thus I can print it, but how can I do
that?? and in extension how can I convert a variant to a Byte value, in case
I've read 1 byte from the file: BinFile.Read(1)...

Thanks
