What's going on is that it will put, say, RR$T into a file when that's typed into a textbox or any typable form control. That's properly saved in the file. So the file will contain RR$T. When it's output, it could be RR, or RR$T, depending on some unpredictable factors (haven't figured it out). By adding a slash, what gets saved in the file is RR\$T, but what gets output could be RR\ or RR\$T, depending on those same factors. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
