    What’s in postData, editTitle and description?

  • @Marcelouchimura are the variables that have the id, title, and Description of a table.

    I know, man; I want to know the content [facepalm]

  • @Marcelouchimura xD id is an int, the title a string coming from an input, and Description with html code, since I am using the Quill Rich text editor, and this gives me everything that is saved, in html.

  • @hkotsubo as far as I can see I’m concatenating everything, but something may be happening to me.

Whole exchange

description.replace(/"/g, '\'')

for

description.replace(/["']/g, '\\\'')

that your hide will be safe and you can sleep the sleep of Morpheus.

  • As no sample content of the variables has been provided, use this suggestion at your own risk.

  • Ahaha thank you so much! It worked! Can you explain to me why it works this way? What’s the difference?

  • The difference is I wrote description.replace(/["']/g, '\\\'') and you wrote description.replace(/"/g, '\''). Did you like my explanation, Prince of the Winged Knights? D

  • It was not necessary this part but instead of having only one ' pus as tres ', it solved my problem right away.

  • Try putting a ' in description and you will have an unpleasant surprise
