DBRW make link have ScreenTip

[Appalachia]

I have made a DBRW page and assigned a ScreenTip as -
<%=FP_FieldURL(fp_rs,"Address")%>

ScreenTip is working but it is showing plusses instead of spaces and other
characters for apostrophe etc.

Is there a way round this?

Thank you

Confusion will be my epitaph...

Using FP_FieldURL will do this - it converts the apostrophes, spaces etc.
to characters or numeric/character entities that are suitable for a URL (for
example: http://example.com/page.asp?tp=my+page ) - spaces are converted to
+, & is converted to &amp;, and % is converted to %25

Change your code to:

<%=FP_FieldVal(fp_rs,"Address")%>

FP_FieldVal() will HTML encode the address, so some characters will appear
in the code as entities, but appearance in the browser should be normal.

If this fails, then use <%=FP_FieldVal(fp_rs,"Address")%>
which does not encode anything, but may result in odd effects...
