I just have one question for Jonathan : If you store the ' and " as ' and " what do you do if you need to show the data later on in a non HTML format (text file for example). Wouldn't you still need to convert back to ' and " before you show the text? Sincerely berber Visit http://www.weberdev.com Today!!! To see where PHP might take you tomorrow. -----Original Message----- From: Bogdan Stancescu [mailto:mgv@fx.ro] Sent: Saturday, January 05, 2002 1:44 AM To: Jonathan Hilgeman Cc: 'php-db@lists.php.net' Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] Fixed Quote Marks in Inputs Ok, seems like I misjudged you and I apologize for that.
