I'm using data that goes from the HTML textbox to PHP to MYSQL to PHP to HTML textbox. The only trouble I have is to escape the apostrophe character when it is put into the HTML textbox by PHP (from MySQL). --snip-- echo "<input type='textbox' value='".$value."'>"; --snip-- I can't use the HTML feature like &quot or something because the "&quot" would show up in the database... Any suggestion or advice? Thanks, Scott F.
