These often results in improperly escaped string literals if your * input string has any backslash characters. For example the string: * "c:\Program Files\uploadtools\" * is placed in a string literal (with quotes escaped) and becomes: * var __flash__temp = "\"c:\Program Files\uploadtools\\""; * This statement will cause errors when executed by the JavaScript interpreter: * 1) The first \" is succesfully transformed to a " * 2) \P is translated to P and the \ is lost * 3) \u is interpreted as a unicode character and causes an error in IE * 4) \\ is translated to \ * 5) leaving an unescaped " which causes an error * * I fixed this by escaping \ characters in all outgoing strings. The above escaped string becomes: * var __flash__temp = "\"c:\\Program Files\\uploadtools\\\""; * which contains the correct string literal. * * Note: The "var __flash__temp = " portion of the example is part of the ExternalInterface not part of * my escaping routine. */ private static function EscapeMessage(message) { if (typeof message == "string") { message = EscapeString(message); } else if (typeof message == "array") { message = EscapeArray(message); } else if (typeof message == "object") { message = EscapeObject(message); } return message; } private static function EscapeString(message:String):String { //var replacePattern:RegExp = /\\/g; //new RegExp("/\\/", "g"); return message.split("\\").join("\\\\").split("\n").join("\\n").split("\r").join("\\r").split("\f").join("\\f").split("\b").join("\\b"); } private static function EscapeArray(message_array:Array):Array { var length:Number = message_array.length; var i:Number = 0; for (i=0; i < length; i++) { message_array[i] = EscapeMessage(message_array[i]); } return message_array; } private static function EscapeObject(message_obj:Object):Object { for (var name:String in message_obj) { message_obj[name] = EscapeMessage(message_obj[name]); } return message_obj; } }
