Checkout the stripslashes() and addslashes() functions. Very cool for stuff like this, and very easy :)

I think your problem is caused by PHP also doing its own encoding of parameters. This is called 'magic quotes' and is well documented in the manual if you wish to educate yourself on the subject. I think it will work straight off if you remove the rawurlencode() or change the setting of magic_quotes_gpc to off (but be aware that this can be a HUGE security risk if your code is not well-written). -- Best regards, Per Lundberg / Capio ApS Phone: +46-18-4186040 Fax: +46-18-4186049 Web: http://www.capio.com -- PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
