prevent html tags from displaying

Is there a way to prevent html tags (like <p> ) from showing in dynamic
text on my webpage... the code that I thought prevented this [$CKEditor_initialValue = "".($rsLatebreaking->getColumnVal("article",false)) ."";] is already in the HTMeditor code on the page.

You have to add the "false" argument manually when the code is displayed as well.

$rsLatebreaking->getColumnVal("article",false)

The "false" at the end is what tells it to display html code and not encode it.

On my HLAA homepage:

Date Uploaded: <?php echo($rsLatebreaking->getColumnVal("eventdate")); ?> (...EventDate displays)
<br/>
<br/>
<?php echo($rsLatebreaking->getColumnVal("article",false)); ?><br/></p> (...Article does not display but does if I remove the 'false' parameter)

I'd have to debug it. Do you have the latest version of rsobj.php? I'm thinking maybe you have an older version on the mac.

How do I know if I have the latest version of rsobj.php? (The only version I know I have is the overall DataBridge v2.35)

If you open the rsobj.php file it has the version listed at the top. Compare it on the servers you are having issues with.

What are the latest versions of rsobj, authorizatiion, and queryobj files and can I download them separately to update my mysqli folders?

The best way to update them is to reinstall DataBridge and then open a recordset and click ok... that will update the rsobj.php file.

Then open any insert//update/delete server behavior and click ok to update the queryobj.php file, and then update a login or authentication server behavior to update the authentication.php file.

That way your current site will be updated and so will any future sites you work on.

I've done that ... reinstalled, opened and okayed. But I'm getting HTML tags in my page. Never had this happen before.

Yes. The MySQLi integration includes built-in Cross Site Scripting protection which will encode html and scripts so it won't be displayed. You can manually disable it in the code by changing references from:

$Recordset->getColumnVal("column")

to:

$Recordset->getColumnVal("column",false)

Adding the "false" argument to the end will tell it you don't want Cross Site Scripting protection and will allow html to be displayed from the recordset directly.
