characters

[James Medlen]

Hello,

I am using visual page 1.0.2 and have two questions.

1. How do I upgrade to 1.1.1?

2. I am using a database/webserver application "WebClerk"
www.webclerk.com. Some of the commands to retrieve
information from the databse include special characters.
<P>!jit=0;*tc_City!, !jit=0;*tc_State!
Visual page converts the * character to &#138;
<P>!jit=0;&#183;tc_City!, !jit=0;&#183;tc_State!
The database program then fails to retrive the correct
record because the variable name has been changed.
Is there a way to have visual page not convert this
character either through preferences or tags?

I did read another forum message about a similar problem involving
cahracter formatting which described using BBedit to replace all such
characters, but would like to avoid that approach if possible.

Unfortunately, Visual Page cannot be changed or instructed to cease this
ISO-8859-1 character translation functionality. Your only option to
restore the original ASCII character from its ISO-8859-1 equivalent, which
Visual Page keeps changing it to, using another editor.
