Sorry,

I didn't mean it quite like that.  After the user presses submit


$string = htmlentities($string);

// now, do whatever with the string

  How to do anything to the strings in php BEFORE the form is sent?

  Hi Niklas,

  use htmlentities() or htmlspecialchars() on the string before the form is
  sent.  See the manual for more info.

  If a user enters a quota ( " ) to a form field and sends it, the page trying
  to process values gets only a backslash ( \ ). No matter if I use GET or
  POST. How to get the right kind of a value?
