Thread: html code in PostgreSQL table
I need to insert a non-breaking space into an html table cell for it to display correctly. If the cell is empty it looks different from all the other cells. Things work fine if the final html code for the cell looks like this: <td> </td> I populate the html table with data from a PostgreSQL database. If I store ' ' as text in the PostgreSQL table's column, it gets printed as literal text in the html table instead of being recognized as an html code. How can I store a value in PostgreSQL and have it recognized as an html code when it gets read and inserted into a web page? I'm using Tomcat and JSP pages. The PostgreSQL data is inserted into a Java Bean and utilized in the JSP page using a <c:out> JSTL tag. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/-nbsp-html-code-in-PostgreSQL-table-tp26799134p26799134.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - www mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
