That's a good workaround. I'll use that until I hear from above. Erik Erik Price Web Developer Temp Media Lab, H.H.

RE: [PHP] Re: escaping special characters upon submit
Try this: $text = nl2br(htmlspecialchars(stripslashes($text))); With $text being the data outputted. It will replace apostrophes, quotes, etc. with their proper html formatting. Example: input: "PHP is Cool!" html output: "PHP is Cool!" Then if you don't want the $quot;, or whatever is outputted depending on the input, you can write a script to strip them out if you like. There are lots of things you can do from this point. Anyway, hope that helps you out...
