It doesn't make any difference if I use stripslashes() or not, it still will NOT produce a javascript alert as it used to do.
    Interestingly enough, I copied your index.php file to index2.php
on the server and modified it to use stripslashes() and, as you said, it didn't work for me, regardless of how many times I tried.
    In Chrome.
    Switched over to Firefox and - wouldn't you know? - it worked like
a charm, exactly as expected, when stripslashes() was employed. Of course, without the call, it wouldn't work in any browser, but this is now confirmed to be a browser issue. Are you using Safari on your Mac? If so, give it a shot with Firefox and/or Internet Exploder. -- </Daniel P. Brown>
Bingo! That did it! You see, I'm writing a report for my student showing them the security hazards of forms. I figured it would be nice if I could show them and example of JavaScript injection. Now, iF FF for windows does the same thing, then that will be great. You know, this teaching thing is a lot of work -- I'm below minimum wage now. Cheers, tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com/
