This code is a simple function call: <input type=submit name=_eventId_load onclick=toLoad(‘2012\9\27\15\2012-09-27T15-05-59-512.00638.eml’); value=Load/> This is

This code is a simple function call:

<input type="submit" name="_eventId_load" onclick="toLoad('2012\9\27\15\2012-09-27T15-05-59-512.00638.eml');" value="Load"/>

This is what I receive in the js function:

 function toLoad(path) {
    document.getElementById("emailPath").value = escapepath);
}

Via firebug, I see that the param path contains: 201292-09-27T15-05-59-512.00638.eml
And after the scape function: 20129%17%0D%812-09-27T15-05-59-512.00638.eml

The values are completely different. How could I work/edit te \ before I send it to the js function?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT

This is the solution:

<input id="filePath-${status.index}" type="hidden" value="${file.path}"/>
<input type="submit" onclick="toLoad('${status.index}'" value="Load"/>

These inputs are inside a form, each element is a file. I need ${status.index} to know which file I want to load. ${file.path} contains the path I want to replace.

function toLoad(index) {
    var emailPath = document.getElementById("filePath-" + index).value.replace(/\\/g,"\\\\");
    document.getElementById("emailPath").value = emailPath;
}

The correct input will be included in a div, so I can use it for the final functionallity.

Thanks for your answers!

    The \ is an escape character and therefore needs to be duplicated to become a literal \, that is, substitute all \ symbols with \\ and retry.

    See Javascript – Replacing the escape character in a string literal
