Re: Passing Special Characters in Query String

apparently, "echo" solved my problem - much to my surprise & disgust, considering the head i was putting into it. printf() apparently didn't print any special chars coming in it - while echo prints anything & everything without a problem!!! Though i am having some problems with slashes, i guess stripslashes() has solved most of it - i'm just working on the balance... cheers, T.
