Re: Quotes problem

Before you print back your form data, it is good programming practice to always run it through htmlspecialchars(). There was a CERT advisory about this last November -- why it took until Nov 1999 to tell web programmers something that they should already know. But, anyway, htmlspecialchars() -- and for the super paranoid there is htmlentities(). -jeremy brand _______________________________________________________________________ GnuPG Fingerprint: 9F5E 95E0 1CC2 E054 84EA 6099 8ACD 9DBA D2C0 5EA9 _ http://www.JeremyBrand.com/Jeremy/Brand/Jeremy_Brand.html for more __ On Thu, 19 Oct 2000, Javier Leyba wrote: > Date: Thu, 19 Oct 2000 17:21:42 -0300 > From: Javier Leyba <jleyba@sabueso.net> > To: Lisdta PHP General <php-general@lists.php.net> > Subject: [PHP] Quotes problem > > > Hi All > > > When my application receives data from a form I want to display it in an input text field on > the next (and all subsequent) pages.
