I am still working on this DB entry page. I have a sort of content mgt page that I have built where certain company people input data to be displayed on a web page to be viewed by the public. Everything is working great except, when someone enters an ' or " into the form field it will not update the database. I figured out that if you escape the ' or " with \ it will go through. I would like to know what I can do to my code to keep users from having to remember this. Any suggestions? thanks, DF
