Matt, love your show!

Use the addslahses function to escape ' " \ characters. See
http://php.net/addslashes for details.

Actually, you shouldn't use addslashes, but a database specific function like mysql_escape_string().

I am trying to allow my users to enter quotes in their strings. For
instance instead of writing: 2 inch rod, they can write 2 " rod. The
problem is, of course, that " ends the string and all that is saved is
any value before the ". How do I get around this without using textarea?
