Oh come on now, we don't flame people, or even engage in name-calling for that matter on this list... :)

Hi lists ( and all the guys trying to help me) Firstly SORRY, I oversimplified my examples that I posted in the hope that I would get to the solution faster. What i failed to mention in my stupidity, was that I echoed the variable as the value of a form input text field, so I actually messed up the HTML, and I just realized it, and a simple $var = htmlspecialchars($var) does the trick beautifully. Again Sorry guys, I really should have known better than to post stripped down code as the problem is usually a simple thing like this... Just for the by-and-by, my previous claims to having a "perfectly working" application before upgrading to 4.3.1 was also then a load of bull, and I only realized now that my app had this bug in it all the time! Just goes to show. Anyway, I deserve a good flaming for this one!
