Hi,

I have created some of the textboxes at runtime in the javascript, i retrieve the values from the database to the textbox at runtime, if the value has single quote in between the words, it skips after the single quote text, for example if the text is HI'TEXT.. It displays only HI. but it saved in the database correctly as HI'TEXT. How to resolve this

We can use .Replace("'","& #39;");

Please note no space in between & and #, need to post with space as output is showing as "'" again
