Sorry, what I mean is...

I have a field in a form where users input text.

If the user inputs something like: Hi there, "this is a quote" and you
should know it.

Then only... <Hi there, > get's inserted because of the double quotes.

Is that more clear?

how do you either prevent users from being able to input " " in a
field or make it so that it doesn't affect the code?


Can you give an example of affecting the code? You can store spaces in
variables just fine.
