Here's a sample of code I use to insert a textarea into a mySQL database: ... <form> .... <td width="32%" valign=top><font face="Arial">About:</font></td> <td width="68%"><textarea rows=6 name=about cols=50></textarea> </td> </tr> </table> <input type=submit name=submit value="Submit"> </form> $result=mysql_query("INSERT INTO printer (name, driver, description, about) VALUES (\"$pname\", \"$drvname\", \"$desc\", \"$about\")", $db); Some of the 'about' fields have quotes and double quotes in them, and these are stored fine in the database (the about field is of type text rather than varchar - I don't know if that's what makes the difference).
