And you let the user modify the data via an html form: You use htmlspecialchars to print the data: <input type="text" name="test" value="&quot;quote&quot;"> When you update de database with the data the user sent via form, you want to save it in plain text. So, it'll be usefull to reverthtmlspecialchars($test). Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=891&edit=1
