Hi Mike, I have found in the past a value such as 42" wheels is _inserted_ into the database without any problem. However, when the "update" form is used with the same value the html is rendered as:
<input type="text" name="myField" value="42" wheels" /> Notice that the value attribute is prematurely ended.. but seems to still render in the browser. The solution was to use the #htmlEditFormat()# function on the value attribute of your form field eg: <input type="text" name="myField" value="#htmlEditFormat(myField)#" /> Hope this helps.

But when the client does it, it doesn't. So there's something different about what the client's doing. The client's not what you'd call computer savvy, and isn't cutting and pasting from a word document so I dont think the problem is they're using the MS Word smart quotes (66/99) and I'm not. That's why I assumed the problem must be that they're using Vista (their computer is brand new) and it's putting a different character in the field for the double quote character. But i'm open to any suggestions. It's very frustrating trying to fix a problem when i can't reproduce it myself.
