[PHP] textarea/textarea
Hi, I have the following probably very simple problem. Basically what I need to do is to collect info from the user via 4 steps... like a set of input type(s) throughout STEP 1 of 4 ... STEP 4 of 4... etc... submitted to db on STEP 5. The only problem I have is I need to display textarea on step 3, and once again the same textarea on step 4 so that user has another chance to review what s/he's written in and on the fifth page all date submitted to db. The problem though is that it adds slashes, and on the submission page (page 5) there's like three slashes for the info collected via textarea. Basically, for instance I submit I'm Russian on step 3, by the time this data reached final step it's I\\\'m Russian. How can I overcome this issue? If I avoid putting variable taken from step 3 to 4th into textarea name=about_eng $about_eng/textarea and do input type=hidden name=about_eng value=about_eng half of the data gets lost, only first word from the submitted previously remains... Hope this was descriptive and hope someone can suggest something. Thanks, Vlad -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I'm interested in hearing about it. Erik Erik Price Web Developer Temp Media Lab, H.H.
