Don't know exactly where to put this, but this is where I looked first, so maybe others will
too.
When using web forms, you should always use the double " rather than single ' for VALUE
params like this:
<INPUT Name="contact_lname" Size="40" MAXLENGTH="50"
Value="<?=$contact_lname?>">
so that if you have a name like: "O'Donoghue" it will work automatically. If you use
the single ' marks, then you will only see the "O" as HTML will interpret the '
in the name as the end ' for the VALUE. Not what you wanted, and it will save you a bunch of
add/stripslashes() functions which get messy.
