Can I configure TinyMCE to escape (\") double quotes? - tinymce

TinyMCE is escaping quotation marks as named html entities " and I need them to be escaped (\"), as this is creating a problem with links in posted content. Is it possible to configure this?

If you are referring to quotes within an HTML attribute its not valid to use \" as the escaping mechanism. You have a few options to be valid.
You can use double quotes for the string delimiter and single quotes within:
<option value="'data">value</option>
...or vice versa
<option value='"data'>value</option>
You can use an entity value for the quote in the string:
<option value=""data">value</option>
<option value=""data">value</option>
But placing \' or \" within an HTML attribute is not valid HTML.

How to escape single quote in EJS template

Use double quotes around your attributes. Then single quotes won't matter.
(If you really want to use ' then you can do ...Poster.replace(/'/g, "&apos;")).

Email button: subject and body text for mailto link

I have a button to send an e-mail message. This opens a new e-mail but the problem is that the subject and the body text are not added to the e-mail message. This is what I have so far that is not working:
<input style="background: #4a5e70; color: #ffffff;" type="button" value="REQUEST INVITE" onclick="window.location.href='mailto:me#any.com’;” subject=“Request%20invite;body=Hallo%20you;”/>
In almost every language (PowerShell is one exception), text strings are delimited by typewriter quotes (' and ") not typographic quotes (‘, ’, “ or ”). You should replace your quotes like so:
onclick="window.location.href='mailto:me#any.com?subject=Request%20invite&body=Hallo%20you'"
The onclick attribute is written as a single string (delimited by double quotes) whose href whose value is a single string (delimited by single quotes) expressed as a URL-encoded query string.
Note also that you can’t rely on mailto links working unless users have configured a local email client correctly.
See the Mailto Wikipedia article and this related question for more information.

Struts2 property tag. Force to escape single quote

I have rather silly problem.
Struts2 property tag doesn't escape single quote ('). Such behavior breaks my JavaScript code.
It does do escape double quote (") using html entities, but not single quote (').
Is there any possibility to force property tag to replace single quote with appropriate html entity?
Example, string replaced with html entities.
Отредактированное событие с кавычкой "
The same with single qoute:
Отредактированное событие с кавычкой '
Is there any possibility to overcome such difficulty using standard approach? I wouldn't like to write some custom code.
You're in luck! By default, the tag only escapes HTML, but you can have it escape JavaScript too:
<s:property value="yourValue" escapeJavaScript="true"/>

Struts2 escaping select values

I have text in a option (using a select tag) that has multiple spaces. These spaces are then converted into one space. I then tried to escape the spaces with but it then converts it to:
&ampnbsp;
which is not what I want. Is there anyway to disable escaping in Strut2 or have it always escape spaces for me for select tags? There is a way to turn off escapes for property tags but nothing for select, that I can see.
Try with attributes escape=false or escapeAmp=false

How to make Netbeans use single quotes in HTML tag attribute autocomplete?

When I type attribute in tag Netbeans automatically add two quotes:
<form method="|">
I want to make it use single quotes:
<form method='|'>
From my answer to a very similar question:
Type something like <div class= now your cursor should be in between two quote or double quote characters. You can now type the other type of quote character and it will change your preference.
I'm afraid, but it's pretty sure that double quotes are hard-coded into NetBeans.
