What I did when I had that problem was use preservesinglequotes(variable) function for
single quotes and rereplace() for others like double quotes and # signs

More of a CF question than a fusebox question, though it is taking place in
a fusebox enabled application.... :)
I have a form with a text area for the client to enter comments. the trick
though is that I have to allow the user to type single quotes (') and double
quotes (") along with whatever other strange variables they want. However,
I am choking when I try to insert their queries into the database. has
anyone ever done this? if so, how did you do it?
The only thing I have come up with so far is URLEncoding it before placing
it in the database and the URLDecoding it when it comes out. However, that
seems overtly complicated. Can anyone suggest a better way?
