problem with callback in tableview

[cactuscraig]

Code: Select all

var myid=10101;
var title="D'or Say";
var mysubtitle="Scottsdale, AZ";
var myimage="";
var mysection=0;
var myimageright=0;
var mycallback="selectCustomer("+myid+",'"+escape(mytitle)+"')";

tableView.insertRecord(mytitle,mysubtitle,myimage,mysection,myimageright,mycallback);

function selectCustomer(id,name) {
     NKAlert (name);
}

With this code, (some removed for easy reading, such as building the tableview) When I tap the row, It does not give me an Alert. seems like a problem with the title. But the title is Escaped, so it should show up, right?
If I change mytitle to something without an apostrophe, it works fine.
All of this data is actually coming from a database using an AJAX Call and being returned as XML. For this example, I have hardcoded the values, but get the same results.

If I try to NKAlert("D%27or"); it fails as well. So something about %27 (')
%20 shows a space. So it is getting unescaped before moving on.

Anyone know how to get this working?

There's too much missing from your code to be sure where the problem is, but you don't seem to be calling the callback correctly.

You've instead put a variable there that contains a string that is a function call but the callback parameter of the insertRecord method needs to be a function name not a variable.

ahh... a double escape is in order:

Code: Select all

var mycallback="selectCustomer("+myid+",'"+escape(mytitle)+"')";
tableView.insertRecord(mytitle,mysubtitle,myimage,mysection,myimageright,escape(mycallback));

function with a variable. I have to pass a variable to my function.
my function then stores the recordiid and the customer name.
